It is the best ham transceiver available and will be for some time, so you can be sure of having no regrets. Moreover, you can get the basic 10w version with one receiver and then add goodies as you go, a feature that is not available with alternatives. The KX3 is a terrific radio and I love mine; I have experienced none of the objections mentioned in a previous post, and I'd note that most of them are either esthetic preferences or can be cured by proper adjustment, construction, and/or operation. However, any radio designed for portability and low current drain has compromises. The K3 is an all-out performance radio -- and it's still highly portable and features pretty low current drain. Get a K3, and don't worry, be happy.
