Best advice so far, Lynn. To the OP: Get something, then GET ON THE AIR.

You'll know what you want out of the next rig.
Good used rigs aren't expensive, and if you buy wisely, you can get most
if not all your money back for the next rig.
I missed the original posting. Did the person who is looking for a rig say
anything about their budget? The K3 may be a very good radio but I wouldn't
be inclined to reccommend a multi-thousand dollar radio as a first rig
unless the person has money to burn.
I would suggest the person look for a second hand radio that would be closer
to the $1,000 or under price range. If they want to stick with a radio that
is less likely to have problems they could pick up one of the K2 or K2/100
radios that come up for sale now and then on this list.
