[Elecraft] Help me choose my first HF rig

[Dan Baker]

I will just add a little as so not repeat anyone else. An integrated pan
adapter into the face of the radio is much better than an external unit.
You see the whole picture at once. An external pan adapter is distracting.
Customer service is valuable to me. I define that as Eric and Wayne showing
up to ham events and being able to speak with them. They work us on the
air. They read the forums and participate. I have seen them take our
suggestions and implement them. Once I mentioned that the opposite ssb
suppression on the KX3 was an issue. Some on the forum down played it.
Wayne contacted me and said he understood and corrected it in a firmware
update. They build products they like to use. That makes products we like
to use.
