I think there was at least one who didn't have the knob far enough to

He builds his own radios with Direct Digital Synthesis out of discrete

His synthesizers have no detectable jitter or phase noise.

Sadly, there doesn't seem to be any interest in supporting the K3 any
longer by Elecraft. Sure, they take them for repair but that is about
it. There have been no fixes for some nagging issues with the noise
blanker and the noise reduction is still inferior to that from other
manufacturers.
So, "keying the mic" or "keying up a repeater" is not proper
terminology? I've long heard the phrase of "the radio keys the
amplifier", etc.
I need to go back to Novice class I guess...
