[Elecraft] Do you really need a K3?

[We5f at aol.com]

I'm sure I speak for many, and I would be very interested in a K3 if it has a 
general coverage receiver.

That's the main reason I can't seriously consider a K2 to meet my needs.  I 
do a LOT of listening - far more than operating.  So a compact mobile 
transceiver MUST have a general coverage receiver to be of interest to me.

As far as price goes, you need to consider that the Kenwood TS-480SAT has all 
the features the K2 has, PLUS general coverage receive, PLUS 6M.  It also 
comes standards with the remoteable control head.  And it's available right now 
for less than 1 kilobuck.
