 >WHY?  The K3/100 is 1900.  For $100 you would buy the Kenwood - NOT.

Actually, the K3/100 is $2150.  Plus $100 for the
500 Hz filter.  Plus $330 for the antenna tuner.
The K3/100 ends up being almost $800 more.

Think we should wait and see what kind of performance
the TS-590S actually delivers.  It is VERY premature
to decide now.

Having said that, however, I do like the fact that
the TS-590S front panel layout has nothing for one's
hand to bump into when trying to use the tuning knob.
I wish Elecraft had gotten that right.

73,
