[Elecraft] New K3 is on the way

[Ray Sills]

And, don't forget to download the -latest- version of the KX3 Utility,  
as appropriate to your computer's OS.  The Utility gets updated, too,  
and sometimes older versions won't work properly.

Having those periodic backup copies of your rig's configuration can be  
a lifesaver.  You'll be able to revert to a known working  
configuration, should you get "frisky" and try a beta version of a rig  
update that does something unpredictable (unlikely, since even beta  
versions are often stable and often become the production release  
without any changes).  Couldn't hurt to put those config files into a  
thumb drive or one of the cloud services, like DropBox... just in case  
your computer tanks.
