Hi Richard: If you look at my earlier emails, you will see that we are not talking about Elecraft simply re-inventing the wheel, but rather doing something innovative and state of the art in an uninterruptible PS internal to the P3 to enhance the portability of the K3/P3 combo. No extra box (i.e. PS) to carry. This is a big deal for the significant number of us who travel extensively with our K3's.
