I am pretty excited. It has been a few months now since I decided I wanted
one. The wife required selling stuff to pay for it.  

Selling a couple Ten-Tec HF rigs, two other receivers, and a bunch of other
gear that was sitting around got the job done. I don't have a ham museum
anymore, but trading all that stuff for a K3 is well worth it. I will keep
the Mark-V for now, but it could go too. 

I ordered this to get started, but will be adding a Inrad 1500Hz filter and
LP-PAN.

K3/100         K3 100W Xcvr. (Modular Kit)
KAT3            K3 ATU (Modular Kit)
KFL3A-250    K3 250 Hz, 8 pole filter
KTCXO3-1     K3 TCXO (1ppm)
KXV3A          K3 RX Ant, IF Out & Xvrtr Int

If it arrives Monday, I hope to get it on the air by Wed. evening.

Going through the manual, I am amazed what the little box will do. With the
LP-PAN and PowerSDR-IF, this will be a great setup. I had an IC-756Pro for a
while and did like the bandscope, but personaly didn't like it much as a CW
radio.

Now I'll be in hog heaven.
