[Elecraft] Advantages of Factory Assembled & Tested K-3 vs. aKit?

[Doug Turnbull]

James and other K3 users,
    There is one other advantage of the kit.   Having assembled the radio
one has a better idea as to how to install future hardware modifications or
additions.   It may be a small advantage but I believe it is a real one.

Hi Dick,

Alignment of the K3 is performed either by using a computer utility or via
the front panel.  You don't have to "adjust" anything.  Also, assembly of
the K3 is like putting a PC together.  There is no soldering involved.  The
only difference between one option and the other is time and money.

Please advise what advantages there are to purchasing a Factory  Assembled 
and Tested K-3 vs. a Kit?  Such as, what sections of the K-3  will be better

aligned by the factory?  Sorry if this is a repeat  question, I couldn't 
find related results searching the  archives.
