Following up on the above slightly old message...

I went through pricing of a K3 myself a while ago. A base machine was going to 
run me a little over $2,000 but when I added all the "nice to have" features I 
  wound up at around $4,000. This is also more than I am able/willing to spend 
on a radio at the moment. If it turns out that the general coverage receive 
option makes it a very good shortwave radio, I would consider selling one or 
two of my shortwave radios with a K3 that I can also use for ham radio.
