The reasons I initially selected the K3 to adorn my shack were:
(1) A rig designed with no compromises for transverter use -- coded output
for transverter selection and control
(2) Performance and at "affordable" price!
(3) IF output to drive my Softrock Panadapter when used with transverters
(4) 10w version -- ideal for transverter use
(5) Outstanding recommendations from other VHF/UHF K3 users
(6) American made and modular design allowing the best repair-ability of
any rig on the market
(7) Custom configuration at time of purchase and the ability to add
hardware upgrades later
(8) Compact size
AFTER SELECTION, reasons I'm even more sold
(1) Beautiful interface with PowerSDR IF (ver 1.19.3.5) allowing point and
click operation without compromise when desired.
(2) Factory Support -- WOW
(3) The desire of Wayne and crew to design software based upon the "NEEDs"
of the user
(4) The encouragement of us users to suggest and request features to be
incorporated in future hardware and software
(5) The darn Koolaid tastes SO GOOD
Biggest problem:
(1) How will I avoid purchasing a second one? I would love to RETURN to HF
with this wonderful rig at 100w or better.
( I would love to find a good external HF amplifier with ATU to use
with the K3/10 160-6m. )
