Thanks to all, including Wayne N6KR, for commenting on their experience and suggestions for continued use of the K3/P3.
Despite my experience and ability to read the OM, I had some issues with the audio output connections and 2nd VFO control. It was recommended to me to return the rig for a rebirth because I hadn't used the Utility program and saved the original factory configuration before a hard reset. Its consequences wasn't a deal breaker, and Elecraft treated me very well as always getting the radio back operating properly. My conundrum is how the K3 (and work in progress P3 with SVGA-keyboard enabled software) will exceed the performance of my TS-590, MK-V Field, or unmentioned IC-765. I'm not a troll as some have suggested (my skin is tougher than yours), but a rather basic person given to operating rather than idly fussing with electronics. I've owned and/or operated many radios over the last 20 some years and am very familiar with my second K3/P3. The question remains for me to answer: will they both still be in a box a month from now? And if so, why not? Thanks for any comments either directly or here. I'm looking for perspective on the Elecraft products versus others some have used. 73, Gary NL7Y -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/A-confession-tp7583887p7583893.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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
