Stephen, I spent my career in business and negotiation is how things get done in business. I began buttering her up a while back. Offering to cook supper, taking her out for Sunday breakfast, cleaning the bathrooms, etc. After a period of this "indirect" approach I then cut a cardboard box down to the 10x10x4 size of the K3 and pasted a downloaded picture of it on the box. I set it next to my K2 but said nothing. In a few days,, her curiosity got the best of her and she asked about it. I explained that it was my dream rig and that it would really be the final piece I'd need to complete my perfect All-Elecraft station. This all made it easier to get to "you can buy your radio after we finish the painting." The dog idea was a stroke of genius on my part...or was it????
