Thanks for the info on the K3's SSB mode of
operation. You guys made up my mind. I'll order
one in January. This radio continues to amaze me,
at every turn it seems like Elecraft Inc. - put

Seems like much of the K3 Reflector correspondence,
and even the discussons of K3 Filters, invariably
ignores the SSB mode in the K3. Is the K3, like the
K2, again looked at as a CW contest rig? For those
hundreds who received their K3's so far, there haven't
been an practical how it works
to
transmit in these frequency regions. That is sort
of Amateur Radio 101.
