Ordered my K3 on the 21st of August. I was a little late ordering, I couldn't decide on the K3 or SDR-5000. I have an SDR-1000 and the K2 and like them both. I decided on the K3 because of Elecrafts excellent support, these guys are awesome. After perusing the preliminary manual, I can see its gonna be a long couple of months, hihi. Mike, N3HY
