Congratulations Jeff,now you are riding a real horse,,and after one month using it,the "Yaekenicom" will remain as a nightdream you had but when you woke up you came back to the real world of a pleasure and performance in your hands.Welcome to the increasing family of Elecrafters.

Thats what did it for me too David,
I am now the proud owner of K3 # 4257 which will get its first airing (on HF) this weekend in Australias first WFF44 site at Undara Lava Tubes National Park.
(See  http://www.qsl.net/vk4fd/VK4FD_Activities.htm for more details)

The support here was the clincher in me buying my Elecraft K3.
(Added to the fact that I was an 'authorised driver' of Gary - VK4FD's K3 #679 for awhile so that I got to enjoy what a 'real radio' was like. There's no going back to a YaeKenIcom after driving a K3 for awhile :-) )

  For me, it's the fact that you get one of the partners responding almost instantly.
  And taking the time to say that an end user being stupid and taking up their time is no problem.

  If you guys over in the US get to vote at shows like Dayton, for your favourite/best manufacture, I sure hope your doing so for Elecraft.
