I personally don't like that sculpted look, I like the No nonsense look of the
K3.Some of the flashy ones are downright goofy looking (those radios look like
toys).
That being said. I have no regrets with the K3, it's a nice radio and does what
I need it to do.
I've spent a lot more with Elecraft than I originally planned, much of that is
due to their service after the sale.
I really don't mind spending money with a company knowing they will stand
behind their product.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] I wonder how many folks have had buyers remorse on a
K3/K3S purchase?
This is true for some people, but many folks can't get past the looks of a rig.
A "well-known" ham in Nevada likes to get on 75 meters and when the subject of
the K3 he once owned (for just a few days) comes up, he loves to retell the
reasons why he got rid of it. "It looked like it was put together with chewing
gum," -- which is his way of saying that the cabinet, knobs and lights don't
have that cool, sculpted, flashy look. For a lot of appliance operators, these
things are very important. "Eye candy," I think they call it.
