[CQ-Contest] Best CW contest rig

[Dan]

John, I have a 1000MP (since 1993)and still use it as my second radio in 
SO2R. I have an Elecraft K3 with all the new boards and whistles and that 
does me just fine. But, if you are looking for top shelf---
At Tom, K8AZs, super station he has Icom 7851s. When I first sat down at 
his 7851s I fell in love and even though my K3 still kicks butt the 7851 
goes to another level.
It has superb audio, selectivity and more bells and whistles than any other 
radio. I can sit in front of that radio for hours with little to no fatigue.

So, My vote goes to the IC 7851 with the K3 a close second and the MP as 
still no slouch.

I am sure this is going to lead to several different opinions, but what is
considered the best CW contesting radio on the market today?  I know at one
time it was Ten-Tecs, at the TS930/TS940s were for a while, and the
FT1000MP probably was for a while, but was is the current best CW rig?
Would it be the Elecraft K3?
