Over the years I've owned nearly a dozen ham rigs. I ALWAYS begin by studying the manual. As a result, I have nearly always found them easy to use and understand. The exceptions have been a fewf products that provided lots of functions that few hams need, not enough buttons to access them, and a menu structure that not even the programmers' mother could love. The Yaesu FT100D and FT8800, and a couple of ICOM talkies fall into this category. The K3 is VERY easy to use if you simply STUDY the manual so that you understand the radio. All the functions you are likely to need on a day to day basis are provided by front panel knobs and buttons that are clearly labeled. While the menu system is extensive, it simply allows SETUP and TWEAKING of the radio for the way you want to use it, and for the accessories that you want to use with it. Once you've done that, it's rarely necessary to use them unless you want to change those accessories or the way the radio works. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ 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
