[Elecraft] K3 or K3S - HIGH LEVEL simple "how to" for Field Day

[Bob McGraw]

Very true.  But watch out for those "I can operate any radio........" 
operators and specially those "well my radio does bla bla or doesn't 
require bla, bla."

My advice, start with "if you've never operated an Elecraft radio, then 
forget everything you know about any other radio as it doesn't apply."  
For sure you will end up with a bunch of knob turners and button pushers 
and they haven't a clue as to how to get back to where they started.  
Much less where they were going.

Just sayin'
