Maybe you could gain by the use of Elecraft K3's....


The reviews state.... 
There is no transceiver in the amateur marketplace that has the close-in dynamic range performance of the K3 with narrow roofing filters installed, and most aren't close to the K3.

Also noted was.

Radios used at last weeks WRTC2010 competition:

"lists that Scott Robbins, 
the Ex-Product Manager of the Ten Tec Orion transceiver 
product line, brought with him, for his personal use... 

...An Elecraft K3! 

That's like Col. Sanders going to Chick-Fil-A for lunch!  Or 
Papa John ordering Pizza Hut for Dinner! 

And, contesting Jedi and CQ WW Champion Multi Multi station 
owner Tim Duffy, who operates the defacto "NASCAR Factory 
Team" for Icom (complete with "Team ICOM" uniforms), and who 
apears in advertisements touting the superior performance of 
the Icom 7XXX line of transceivers, brought with him for his 
personal use... 

...An Elecraft K3! 

That's like Dale Earnhardt bringing a Toyota Camry to drive 
in the Daytona 500!   

The list is sort of like discovering that Bill Gates uses 
an Apple Mac Book running OS/X to do Microsoft presentations 
with! 

Now, we all know that the invitees to this party could 
afford to bring *anything* they wanted to bring.  Im also 
sure that any rig manufacturer would have been happy to 
supply them with anything they wanted, just for the 
asking... 

But they both showed up with K3's.  So did most of the 
competitors!   

Why?"....



Doesn't take much thought,
