I don't recall anyone saying they bought "a K3 JUST TO RUN FM". But the great
thing about this hobby is that there are so many different ways to enjoy it.
Some people may choose to work only CW. Others get their fun trying all the
modes available to them. The great thing about the K3 is that it allows you
to do whatever you are interested in with no compromise.

The K3 is the finest radio I have used for HF FM. Those that I have used in
the past relied on a second IF ceramic filter for their FM selectivity, so
if there was a strong station on one frequency it would spoil reception of
another 10KHz away. During sporadic E openings when stations tend to be
either strong or gone, it was often a mess. With the K3 and its dedicated
crystal filter in the first IF every station came through crystal clear with
no adjacent channel interference. The great audio reports just added to the
enjoyment.
