[Elecraft] About the K3 cw speed

[Hector Padron]

"With external keying the K2 can do about 70 but I'd love to see that built into the K2.  Plenty high speed ops out there -- FOC, FISTS, CFO"
 
True,there are dozen good high speed ops that can receive up to and over 70 wpm like friend of mine in Miami who can copy and type 75 wpm but how many of them will be able to TRANSMITT 70 wpm with his fist and a paddle ? Sure NONE.! 
So what's the point of having a TX speed over 50 unless you wanted to do a real messy transmission at 70.

We all have our wish lists though; no disrespect to the K2/K3 and all the engineering and budgeting decisions that undoubtedly went into them.
