[Elecraft] K2/100 or K3/10?

[Julian G4ILO]

If the idea of needing to use CW to make QRP contacts seems
off-putting, you can always use PSK31. It's very popular now, and just
as effective as CW at low power levels. In that respect, the K3 with
its built in PSK31 support (and built-in CW decoder too) might be the
better choice.
