Yeah, I keep my rigs "3 Deep".
A backup and then a backup for the backup.

Yes, but on the other hand, I knew about it in advance and I still have my K3.  :=)

I suspect the K3s will still be a popular radio because of its friendly user interface, world-class performance, small size and weight, and low power consumption.  It's a great DXpedition and Field Day rig.
