I enjoy my K3 very much, but I am not overly impressed with the level of "user" support offered via the forums/groups/reflectors.
To me, it is very irritating the amount of private reporting/discussion that goes on regarding the Elecraft products. It should ALL be out in the open with nothing hidden. That way, we all get to learn at the same time and do not have to reinvent the wheel as problems arise. This is not a Cool-Aide drinking society - there is nothing to protect or hide. The manufacturers and third party providers all must have very thick skin and try to work with problems incurred. Users should endeavor to get the word out when there are problems. With all involved, it assures that problems will be well vetted and quickly corrected. The K3 niche is small on the great scale of ham radio. Hence, it is good to work together - not behind closed doors. Perhaps the forums/groups/reflectors should endeavor to work as well as the Elecraft factory support.
