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.


Take care and 73's
