I think it was fair question there are people who sell their K3's and other Elecraft equipment to buy other radios. There is one on QTH.COM right now wanting to trade his K3, P3, KAT500 for an FTDX-5000MP. I do see them for sale all the time and always check to see the price and call on them if there is a phone number. One of my first asked questions is why do you want to get rid of the radio, you might be surprised at some of the answers. I'm always looking for a deal on any Elecraft gear I don't have or my friends might want.
Many of those selling are for a single reason they want a full size radio, where I wanted to downsize and still have a SO2R setup. Elecraft can't be beat for that, now if they would just bring out a legal limit ++ amp I would need 2 of those. I went from several different brands of radios down to 4 now including my Elecraft as my "Main" HF gear and a Kenwood in the mobile for another. -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Dr. William J.
