There are more than 8,000 K3s out there. What percentage do you think
are exhibiting problems? The great thing about owning a K3 is this
forum. If you have a problem, there is a community of owners, including
numerous representatives from the company that makes the rig, there to
help you. I'm still looking for the Yaesu or Icom forum in which company
representatives are there to help you and solicit recommendations for
new features. If you've heard of such a forum, let me know.
There is a reason that significant numbers of world class contesters and
DXers own K3s, and I assure you it's not because of reliability issues.
My suggestion would be for you to understand that in a forum like this,
people talk about issues they are having. That's kind of the point. The
difference in owning a K3 or something else is that, because of this
forum, if you have an issue, you might very well find yourself asking
the person who designed your rig if there's a way to fix it. I can't
think of a better reason to spend your hard earned dollars with Elecraft.

I've been thinking about getting the K3, P3 and the amp but with all these
problems I keep seeing I hesitate to purchase. I talked to a few owner that
love the k3 so perhaps this is only a small group that has problems or do a lot
of owners have these problems? I ned to know more before I shell out a lot of
hard to dollars. Any suggestion fellows?

Bill,
I cannot assure you that this is not some delayed effect of the
lightning strike,
However, try doing the TX Gain Calibration before anything else. You may
want to run it 2 or 3 times if it does not help initially.
If that does not correct it, you will have to contact support for
further assistance.
