My main reason for owning a K3 or I should say K3's SO2R none better and I'm
a DX'er first before all else.
"The DXer's Friend Elecraft" TX5K 3 bands and working still for me, my
friend another K3 user has worked them all bands all modes except for one.

I'm delighted to see such interest in DX on this reflector. Once when I
posted the QRV of an Elecraft-powered DXpedition, I got a strange email from
a reflector lurker saying that DX-related posts were off topic. However,
it's clear that there's a lot of interest -- some casual, some hard-core --
among reflector users. After all, there is no radio better designed for
DXing than a 2-receiver K3, and a lot of them are sold to DXers for exactly
that reason. For whatever reason, Clipperton has brought out a lot of
commentary, much more than, say, the Comoros, Swains Island or Conway Reef,
or the numerous other rare and juicy expeditions in the recent past. It's
great to see the activity that their expedition has stirred. BTW, if you
haven't read their documentation, check out their website at
http://www.cordell.org/CI/CI_pages/CI_Main.html
To see just how meticulously this was organized, see:

And when you work 'em, don't forget to watch the DXA page to see your call
appear on their map and real-time log.
