Although I just started using the K3, I really like the AGC system so
far. That's in contrast to other digital AGC systems I quickly learned
to *dislike*. Low band DXers or contesting people will really like the
"slope adjustment" feature.

Wow...coming from Tom, this is indeed HIGH PRAISE.

The kudos from well respected contesters, DXers, and Low Band
aficionados just keep piling up.  Such uniformity of accolades from
such well-respected and/or renown, elite ops is quite rare, perhaps
never before duplicated.  Glad I chose K3!

Congrats to Eric, Wayne, Lyle, et al.

PS  I think it is OUTSTANDING that when some criticism does show up,
rather than argue "it's not a bug, it's how it was designed," the
Elecraft folks actually listen and respond (within days, if not
sooner) with the fix.   Other than zero sun spots, these are great
days for ham radio.
