[Elecraft] New ham and the KX3

[Lynn W. Taylor, WB6UUT]

Definitely.  I'm not even sure why I bought a microphone for my KX3.

I've got a Brown Brothers straight key and a set of paddles, and I'm 
seriously thinking of selling them.

Digital modes are the way to go (then again, I ran RTTY more than 30 
years ago -- 28KSR on autostart -- so I'm biased).

I've been slowly working my way back into the hobby, and I plan 100% 
portable operation with a laptop, KX3, and more-or-less random bits of wire.
