[Elecraft] Guidance

1 - Cancel the K3, buy  K1.  You do not need a K3 at this stage.
2 - Erect a simple doublet to cover the 4 bands.
3 - Make some contacts and decide then which band you like, based on 
experience gained.

I have always had an interest in photography, but if I were starting out 
now I would not buy a top of the range Nikon. Likewise if I had just 
taken my driving test I would not expect to buy a Maseratti, Ferrari, 
Bentley etc.
