Ditto.  This is the first radio I"ve ever owned that comes with an opioniated user community, no extra charge :)  I also didn't know that D4C and W7RN had K3s.  There is an ongoing debate amongst long time top 25 type contesters (of which I am not!) about the K3 for M/M.  If the D4C level guys are using them..that is real high credibility.

Personally I am enjoying this discussion and am looking forward to the contest station settings. Anything to help improve the
performance of my K3 is welcome. I am not the brightest bulb in the pack so always am grateful for any help.

Folks - please tone down the discussion. Keith was just voicing an opinion, not making an attack. -All- technical opinions are
welcome here. And there is no need to defend the K3's honor. It does pretty well on its own ;-)

Now back to our hopefully more substantive, and polite, topics..

Your always enthusiastic list manager,
Eric
