There are many who would like to see a larger radio with more individual controls (direct band select, Split, separate control for Dual PB and APF, separate control for Diversity and Link, etc.) as well as a 48V PA for better transmit IMD. The added controls and 48V/200w PA are not something that is likely in the current K3 form factor. 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 2015-04-01 12:39 AM, Harry Yingst via Elecraft wrote:

A huge selling point for me was the modular and up-gradable approach of the K3 (and the K-Line as a whole) You can go every where from the Base radio (as a great radio all by itself) up to the full blown K-Line fully loaded. I also had radios from "The Other Guys" and having to buy a whole new radio to get new features really is a waste of money. As the Elecraft product line increases it allows me to add in new gear that integrates well in both function and appearance to my existing equipment so I don't wind up with the mishmash of shapes and sises so common with "the other guys"
