OTOH, a K3 will play just fine and not incur the wrath of the BW cops
when fired up "right out of the box." In fact, it is wise to use it
some, become familiar with the manual and menus, and have Fred Cady's
book open to the correct page before changing anything. Elecraft has
wisely omitted the menu entry to change the keying waveform found on
some other transceivers in the upper price classes.
If I got an unsolicited email from a stranger telling me something was
wrong with my signal, I doubt I'd panic [the FCC seems to have run out
of "pink slips" several decades ago], but I'd check it out with a
reliable friend just in case. RF into the mic circuit can cause a whole
lot of trouble in an otherwise pristine radio.

Grant, I understand what you're saying, but there are a lot of hams
that think that the factory defaults that their particular radio
shipped with are just fine when they could be improved with
assistance, or they think that if a little adjustment is good, more
is better.
