[Elecraft] K3 on Order

[Pete Smith]

I got the Samlex 1235M, and have been very happy wioth it (the 35 amps 
gives more than adequate headroom for the K3, without being silly).  The 
one drawback is the rather loud fan which comes on after heavy 
transmitting, but AD5X has a modification (and an excellent review of 
the PS) on his web site, which lets the fan run slowly almost all the 
time, and the top speed only rarely.

73, Pete N4ZR
