Sounds good, David. I've done substantial rework, too -- but mostly due to the KPA500 (needed RG-213 to replace RG-8X runs in the shack -- and added switches so I can use 3/4 antennas with K3/500 or other rigs, like K1, KX1, K2/100 and KX3).

I'm never likely to post pictures of my shack: It will never be that neat, I fear.

Congrats on your K3! I've had mine a couple of months or so, and I expect to still be learning a year from now (e.g., just set it up to do PSK31 with a SignaLink USB today).

Hi All,
The radio arrived, all is working well!  The book by KE7X arrived a day
later...

I have the rig on air, and it appears to be working great.  Quite a
learning curve...  But I am taking it one step at a time, getting each
function working, then rewiring the shack to accommodate.

I decided to redo the entire station as well...  Pulled every item off
the desk, and started by replacing all grounds with 1 inch braid.  Moved
to AC power, then 12 Volt power, then to signal and control.

Much neater behind the desk now.  I mounted all the power outlets,
etc...  I'll have photos on the web site soon...
