[Elecraft] Unhappy With Your KX3?

Hi Kevin,

Let me just add a little bit.

I have #62, factory built.  I have not seen any real issues with this rig. 
And it seems like every time there is a new software version, I get a new 
rig!

Sure, there are some very minor issues.  None were show stoppers for me and 
many, if not most, have already been addressed.

And there is still much more in the works!  So I'll be getting a new rig 
several more times.

This is my first Elecraft rig and I have no regrets at all.  It is much 
better than my FT100 and when I get back to AZ and get the FT-1000MP fixed, 
I'm sure it will be at least that good as that rig.  I have a feeling that 
the RX is better but until a side by side comparison, it's only a guess.

Would the K3 be a better radio for shack use?  Sure, and you can start 
"small" and add more and more features.  So it comes down to what you want 
the radio for.

Best advice I can give is to go visit people who have one or the other and 
see how they "feel" to you.  There is no one rig that is "just right" for 
everyone.

OK, back in my hole,
