[Elecraft] Big box K3

[Phil Hystad]

It seems to be that a bigger K3 is a different radio then the K3 and should be called something different.  No, not even K3A or whatever.

I probably would not buy one though.  I like my K3 as it is.  If there is some great new technology that is embraced by Elecraft that does not fit the K3, then maybe it is time for a K4.  If that is in a bigger box, then so be it if that is needed.  But, to have a bigger box merely to use space is not my obsession.

I think the IC-7800 and the FT-9000 whatever are in very big boxes.  When I first saw the FT-9000 my first thought was "No, I don't want that".

I am surprised Eric hasn't put the kibosh to this thread -- maybe they are listening to the comments.  If you are, I vote for status quo.
