[Elecraft] QST Review: Minor Quibble

[K4IA at aol.com]

When I first saw the K3 at Dayton I made fun of  the small second VFO knob.  
In fact, I was obnoxious about it.  Wayne  and Eric were good natured (as 
always) but I could tell they were a bit  defensive.  I was also worried about the 
multi-function knobs and how small  the face looked.  I was used to the 
Orion.  You could fit a K3 in the  empty space inside an Orion.  I would expect 
most hams - used to big rigs -  would have the same worries.

Man, was I wrong.  I have had K3 #101  for one-year now and absolutely love 
it.  Once I got used to how it was  laid out, everything fit together and I 
found nothing to complain about.   The K3 is the perfect size - all it needs to 
be and not a bit more or  less.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
