[Elecraft] Icoms answer to the KX3??

[dw]

Not enough buttons on it for my CW-OP style. :-]
I hate drilling into a menu just to change cw speed.
Right now I'm in love with my new K3s!!
Love that CWT display for zeroing in on a station!
For a CW op, it doesn't get much sweeter.
It will take me a little while to take full advantage of all of its
features.

Toys R us! :-]
