[Elecraft] K3 Initial Configuration?

[Rob May]

Just to add my voice to the choir, go for the K3/100 kit with the stock filter.  If the budget allows, the KAT3 antenna tuner is the best I've used.  If for some reason you are not happy with it after a couple of months (impossible!), you can sell it for what you have in or even a little more since you added some "sweat equity" building it.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Initial Configuration?








Thanks, in advance for your help! I apologize if this question has
been asked before, but here goes.

What would be the least expensive initial configuration for a new
(factory assembled) K3? My operating preference is SSB, but I may try
some of the digital modes at some point.

I can do without the general coverate receive feature, but I'm not sure
about the need for the second receiver for the K3. Also, will the
stock filters (including the roofing filter) be good for awhile? What
other options should I consider and would you recommend any of the K3
mods that have been produced? Can the other options be easily added in
the future?

Again, thank you for your advice.
Very 73,
Jim K9RII
