Interesting.

It costs 3 times what I paid for my K3.

The Yaesu price is ridiculous. I am looking at the new Kenwood down
conversion TS-590S. It has good close-in performance and excellent
sensitivity for $1750.


Definitely some interesting rigs in that price range, including the Ten Tec Eagle, Ten Tec Jupiter and Yaesu FT-950. Take your time and enjoy deliberating. Sometimes people get in a hurry when they're trying to decide which rig to buy. I'd take it slow and think carefully about which features these rigs have and which would be the best "fit" for you and your operating habits. There's a lot to consider. The data on the Sherwood list is only a first step. I envy you...it's fun trying to decide which rig to buy!

It's great to see two American companies with the lowest priced
transceivers right up near the top of the ratings. If you include
SDR's, you can make it three.
