Thanks for ur advice which I already took.

I got a FT-9000d which has so many knobs and

switches that it may set the all time record.

For operating ease, the Yaesu is far superior and

already contains most of the features on the 

Elecrafters wish lists.  

I just wanted to give the K3 a thorough chance

to show its stuff and was frustrated at the 

difficulty of operation.

I was also able to switch the same antenna between

the 9000d and the K3.  In all cases the performance

on 80 and 160 was the same with noise and vy weak

sigs.  Considering the vast price difference, that makes

the K3 the bargain of the decade, even if u add the

cost of a computer to control it.  73
