[Elecraft] New K3s

[Jim Lowman]

Pretty much what I plan to do with my K3.
Another fellow brings his K3 to our all-QRP Field Day, so I can add mine 
to the fray.

Prior to ordering my K3S at the Huntsville Hamfest I had ordered and 
received my two K3SYNA cards, so my "old" K3 will have the newer 
synthesizer card and the older bandpass module.

I would have my K3S by now, but I asked Lisa to defer shipment until I 
return home from vacation.
