I've had mine for almost a year and am learning new things all the time. That said, I have and am using it daily in DX chasing and consider it the finest rig I have ever owned. Get the manual and Fred Cady's expanded veresion then start reading and setting up and making QSO's. Read the archives on this reflector and gradually you will begin to appreciate what the K3 can do for you. This comes from a ham who was first licensed in 1948 and has operated and owned almost all the rigs since that time. Again, accept that you will have a slow, but exciting learning curve which will reward you with performance you can use to do almost anything you want. 73 Don K5AQ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
