[Elecraft] K3: Yaesu copies K3's design

[David Ferrington, M0XDF]

Certainly matters to me, I reckon a full K3 would work out less or  
about the same as a full FT-2000 (with all the trimmings).
I can't afford to pay much more.
I'm happy with the layout and size too, in fact, the size was a  
deciding factor in fitting the rig onto my desk in my shack, which is  
my home office too.
