I owned two of the vaunted SDR transceivers. Their hardware design is
flawed (sudden power spikes that could blow an amp, no QSK, poor auto-tune,
and other miscellaneous stuff), but more to the point that Ed mentions,
each of their much-trumpeted software updated brought an immediate flood of
bug reports (some quite serious) from users that indicated that little or
no testing had been done via on-air operation. Add to that the fact a K3
with LP-Pan and NaP3 offers a complete superset of their capabilities, and
the choice was oh so obvious.
