Don't buy a K3 if you're shack is very windy.  It's so light, it may blow off
the table :.)

Prior to the K3, I had an Icom 7800, and before that, an FT1000D.  
Shortcomings of the 7800 include a useless APF and crippled computer control
(I forget exact details, but as I recall there were some issues with split
operation and inability to clear RIT from the keyboard, using the popular
contest and logging programs). I loved my FT1000D, but it's getting old,
replacement parts are no longer available, etc.  I have no regrets owning
the K3.
