[Elecraft] relatively newbie - what's your best tip for me?

[Anne Dirkman]

I've had my license since 2011 with very little exposure to amateur radio
before that - pretty much started from scratch... Just won a KX3 over the
weekend at my DX Convetion.and am looking for guidance. What is the first
thing* you wish* *someone would have told YOU* about your Kx3.  Any tips
and hints will be considered. .

I'm heading to the Supefest at HRO next weekend and am making my list of
what I will need.   I've done some DXing at home and on on the shore and
contesting and would really like to get in to portable operation with a
minimal amount of setup so I can enjoy the sunny shores of Lake Michigan,
operating at the parks and local Maritime Museum.

Started reading the manual overnight, I was told it's a steep learning curve
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
