[Elecraft] K3S - Build or Buy

[Gary Smith]

Build, VS buy... If you have the 
temperment to build, it is a wonderful way 
to get to know how your radio is assembled 
and it will give you an idea how to work 
on it if in the future, the need should 
arise.

I built my K3, I did buy the factory built 
K3s but only because I built the K3 
earlier. Had I not done the earlier build 
I would certainly bought the K3s Kit.

It reminds me of an Erector set, if you 
remember those, its a great way to make 
something grand out of parts.
