Jatin
There are all sorts of kit vendors out there. www.qrqrci.org has quite an extensive list. But I would agree with Lector, if the price of the Elecraft doesn't scare you off, it is a really great radio ... any one of them. Notice that they are really for different users. The KX1 is designed to be "trail-friendly". By that they mean not only small and light, but convenient if you are sitting on a log. The K1 is a nice portable rig, and with the internal tuner and batteries, it is a great hotel-room or picnic table rig. The K2 is more of a base rig, although lots and lots of folks use them portable. To many people, the K2 is the "ultimate" rig. ... "Jatin" wrote in message m... Thanks. Just what I was looking for!

I couldn't connect to it. Notice that they are really for different users. The KX1 is designed to be "trail-friendly".

I am considering Elecraft, hopefully that would be a Christmas gift ![]() Jatin ================= |
