[Elecraft] K3 how often do you use it?

[Eric Fitzgerald]

I use my K3 almost every day.  If it were in a bigger box I probably  
would not have bought it and gotten the Flex 3000 instead.  A small  
footprint was one of my requirements.  But then again coming from an  
FT-100D as my only HF radio, the K3 seems huge and to have a wealth  
of controls :-)

Another county heard from.
