[Elecraft] KXPD2 vs. KXPD3

[Phil Wheeler]

Thanks, Don. Well, I wish I had a 'soft touch', 
but I'm more of a banger. May have to put add 
weight to the KX2 (or figure out a weighted base 
for it) when using it with a paddle mounted to it.

I'll order the KX2, as much for its smaller size 
than anything: Seems more consistent with the 
philosophy and size of the KX2.
