I know I'm preaching to the choir here.  But the ease of assembly and  
setup, and (at least my initial take on) performance is just  
outstanding.

I thought at first that I would have a terrible time with the one-item- 
at-a-time menu system, or even even a bit of a problem with the size  
and control spacing.  Not so on either count.  Having moved to the K3  
after abandoning a couple of versions of another high-end radio,  I  
couldn't be happier.  I need to start saving some shekels to add the  
KRX3 and another filter set.

No, it doesn't have the audio heft on AM of an R-390 or SP-600, but I  
think I can live with that.  Maybe it won't be long until the SAM  
detector shows up  -- or the push-pull 6V6 output stage arrives as an  
option :)   In the mean time, it's time to drag the Begali back off  
the shelf, and work some CW .....
