[Elecraft] K3 - Should I buy simple now or save for loaded rig?

[Don Wilhelm]

Stan,

While everyone has their "clippoints", I would suggest that you purchase 
the base K3 now before the price increase, and then ponder what 
additional options you might want (even though the price increase may 
have gone by).  OTOH, if you already know what K3 features you want, 
order them now to take advantage of the prices.
