If you work primarily CW and SSB. and don't mind the menu system and small form factor it's a hard radio to beat! According to Sherwood Engineering the 891 isn't even close to the 7300.

K5YY Ham Member QRZ Page. Have eaten with and spoken to Bob over the years on my trips to California.

Ameritron QSK5 $600 (for full break in CW as in the RF Kits RF2KS) Shipping fees $100. State Sales tax (7%) $300. Grand Total cost $4600 !! Comparatively, the RF2KS seems like a bargain of the day at just $4999 with dual devices, much more output ! Even with the new price of $5500, it seems to be good bargain.
W0IW Ham Member QRZ Page. This Saturday May 1st, 2010 is the big Grand opening for a new and different kind of ham store called HAMKITT.

Something to keep in mind for budgeting is antenna (trans-match if needed), power supply, cables and wires, key or microphone, operating desk, maybe a computer. Even without the computer, it's easy to spend another $250+++. Power supply $125, trans-match $250, key $90, Desk (home built) $200, wire, insulators, cord, and feed line for doublet $160.
