[Elecraft] Eric's missing FDIM talk

[Harry Yingst via Elecraft]

Have you factored in that it basically now comes with more included options than the K3 did?

So to compare K3 (+1600)  + PR6-10 ($160 option) + KXV3A ($120 option) = $1880

It's really only about a $220 Difference between the K3 and The K3S
(Plus the K3S  even has the new synthesizer board in it)


Seems to me the K3S is actually a pretty sweet deal 
 



Dang, I may have talked myself into getting one

That isn't what he said. He said he was on the financiall fence about buying the K3 and the $500 price increase swayed him back toward another Eagle. Elecraft is about to learn a painful economic lesson.

A 20% price increase is ridiculous for a new synth, a native USB port and 100KHz receive which amounted to changing three caps on the exisitng K3BPF. Oooops I forgot the new faceplate.

I may still buy another as my curerent one is now gold. I won't be buying the P3 or much of anything else Elecraft afdterwards. $6K for a fully stuffed radio is too much.

$2899 for a K3/100F means you can't order a CW filter of any flavor and stay under $3Kshipped.
