[Elecraft] [K3] Buying CM500 in NYC

[Bill Hammond]

Hi Stew,
Even if you decide not to buy the CS500, B&H is a great place to visit.  It is a tourist attraction in its own right.  If you are a little interested in Photography B&H has the greatest collection of photographic equipment I have ever seen. 
Here is a movie (Ad) on B&H:

There are other NYC area stores too, Adorama for example.  I have no interest except a satisfied customer of both photo gear and headsets from Adorama and B&H.  

I have two CS500's and they are great at half the Illinois manufactures price (sorry to say).  To my ears they are more comfortable too, to me that is their appeal.
73,
