Hopefully Elecraft will obtain permission from RSGB to post the review 
publicly, as happened with the QST review.

Most of the five pages are taken up by a description of the K3, which 
will be very familiar to existing users. The really interesting parts 
are towards the end, the on-air impressions and the measurements - 
although here too, many of the issues are familiar.

One important thing to add is that the review would have been written 
*before* the major MCU 1.87 / DSP 1.69 update released on May 3rd, so 
Peter did not see the K3 in its current state of performance.
