It's even more difficult to choose if you don't currently have either 
one. If you want a full-featured rig, the K2 is no bargain in comparison 
to the K3. To equip a K2 so it's nearly equivalent to the base K3, it 
comes in at only about $140 less than the K3. Like to work 6m? That's 
another $400. Oops, now your K2 is $250 more than a K3, and still 
doesn't have as good a receiver, IF DSP, excellent digital mode 
support... Want AM or FM support? Not there, or even available on the K2...
