Keith,

That may be true, but if it is, each operator will know how to set it up to his preferences. I say again, if he does not know how to set it up, he should leave it alone. In the midst of a contest is not the time to be fiddling with things to find out what each operator wants. A bit of education and practice with settings beforehand *can* make such operator changeovers smooth.

Perhaps your group can agree on some compromise settings that will work suitably for all. After all, DXPeditions using multiple operators seem to do something like that with success. Setting up for a contest should be no more difficult.

Don,

No way could someone that was a real serious contester use the K3 with the
stock settings and score anywhere near the points that could be scored
without changing the settings.  A stock K3 is NOT a contest radio.  And I
think that's where a lot of the cons about the K3 happen.  There are several
settings in the K3 that must be changed to make the radio a contest radio.
