[Elecraft] What to do with my K3

[Joseph M. Durnal]

Suggestions are pouring in.  I'm surprised nobody has offered to buy
it from me right away.

Most folks think I should build it and and use it for field day and
once I do that, I won't want to sell it!

So building has started.  I can't find my dummy load, I think I lent
it out but I can't remember to who.  So, at some point I'll have to
find one of those.  Other than that, how long should it take?
