[Elecraft] K3 - SMT mods

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

For many Hams today one of the most interesting parts of Amateur Radio is
figuring out how to get something done without all the resources we'd expect
to find in a well-financed laboratory. It isn't all about money, although
most of us live on a strict budget. It's the challenge to find a way and
develop the skills to do the job with the resources at hand that gives some
of us as much satisfaction as a DXCC certificate or top score in a contest
does for others.

I'm sorry, Brian, but here in the real world, spending $100 on a tool to do
a one-off modification just isn't an option.
