For the most part I agree with the "abject Buffoonery" on 75M. There 
are however, exceptions such as the 3905 century club which has a 
great bunch of very decent people on it and they very much welcome 
newcomers. It is a county hunter's net though and absolutely not a 
net to argue whatever topic is out there and then grandstand your 
position like so many 75M nets are.

Worth a listen if you wish to work 75M and if you do, your K3 will be 
an excellent radio for you in all ways.
