It is always important with an Elecraft radio to pay attention to the
details - Serial number,options installed (including filters), and
upgrades installed are always the minimum essentials.

An upgraded K3 (synth, other) is far better than a mere 90% of an S. Where’s
the 10% as far as actual performance (not just a dB or two here and there) is
concerned?
Of course, you could (it was originally talked about but never offered as an
“official” upgrade, but you can order it as a

It is interesting that the seller of the K3 from that estate does
acknowledge that it is not 'really' a K3S, but justifies listing it as one
because of unspecified upgrades. It sure is important to pay attention to
details.

It seems like the K3S has been grouped together with the K3. The K4
will be a different animal. Like K3ICH, I have three K3S's and with
any software I have to select K3 as the rig. The K3 has been out of
production for years. I have seen a number of K3 ads listing the radio
as K3S, here is

Don't sell the K3 short. The basic K3 is still one of the finest radios
ever made and the difference between it and newer radios is hardly
noticeable to the human ear.

I wish Elecraft the best of luck with the K4, and I am sure they will
sell a lot of them. I am keeping my loaded and upgraded K3, serial
number 0007. I am sure the K4HD would provide slightly better

Dear Charlie,
be noted that even if the radio shows K3S on the front panel it does not
have to be the K3S inside.
There is possible to buy K3S "facelift" kit on eBay which allows to your K3
looks like K3S...:)
(...they say "K3S esthetic upgrade kit")
I'm keeping my K3S.I'll decide on a K4 next year.
