Dennis,
Like yourself, I had a K3 (#8331) that was fully loaded (upgraded it with all
the new boards). Purchased the K3S with the 100W amp, tuner, and 400 Hz filter
at Dayton the year it was released, and ended up building serial number 10038.
I tore out the sub receiver, Voice Recorder, three additional filters in the
main and sub receiver, and High Stability Ref Oscillator from the K3, and moved
them to the K3S.
My K3 options were now the 100W amp, tuner, and 400 Hz filter, and it became my
standby radio (I have used it at Field Day for the CW station for the last few
years).
So, yes; if you do not need to sell it for financial reasons, I would suggest
you keep it.

I just ordered one of the K3S Black Friday packages that includes a
subreceiver. I already have a nicely equipped K3 (but no subreceiver) and
am wondering if I should sell it or if I'd find it still useful enough to
keep. Would like to hear advice from others who have upgraded to a K3S
*with* subreceiver and kept their K3. Is the original rig still valuable
to you?
Tnx and 73,
Dennis, N7DH/1
