Got a call from the insurance company today - they approved my claim. Probably a week or so before I see the check, and then I'll be calling up Elecraft for a replacement. Looks like I'll make it in time to avoid the price increase as well!
I'll likely configure the new one identically to the old: K3/100, KAT3, KBPF3, TCXO upgrade, KXV3A, KDVR3 and 2.8k/1.8k/6k/400 8 pole filters. This seemed to work out well for me. The insurance company told me I could do whatever I want with the old K3 (and everything else that was damaged.) I wonder if I could salvage the 8pole filters and put them in the new radio... the savings would almost cover the deductible.
