[LCC] low band antenna experience

[Mark Ketchell]

Wow....And I thought Scott and I were competitive about things. Guys, since 
I am about to tear down everything outside and erect two towers and stacks, 
PLUS some type of RX antenna, I don't foresee the purchase of a new rig in 
the near future. However, if either was inclined to DONATE a K3 or MP, or 
both, I would be happy to do a long term test and comparison, and give you 
my results in a year or two. Just saying...

73,
Mark, K5ER

>>My point was simple too.  “The reviews state

>>the story is that 3 of the 5 top WRTC2010 teams used FT-1000MPs.

>>My point to Mark using Icom 756 Pro II's was simple.  Your antenna system 
>>only gets you so far. Admittedly a long way. The Elecraft K3 is a great

>>level or close in working with crowded bands during contests.  You need a 
>>great receiver to do that and the K3 has one of the best.

>>Or, you could use an FT-1000MP like the 1st and 2nd place team used
.

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