When I purchased my K3 I also ordered the sub receiver, all was good.

Then I ordered a P3 recently.

What a lethal combination for working split operation dxpeditions. The 
sub receiver is absolutely great, the P3 add's the visual side of things 
and makes it even better.

If I could have only one of the two it would be the sub receiver, 
however, lately I've been just using the P3 for working split which is 
very effective.
