Good afternoon, My thanks to everyone. I received a tidal wave of positive comments on the K3, many from hams like myself. It seems the radio is so versatile that it can be used in a simple application or in a most complex manner. It truly could be the "forever" radio as it constantly evolves while giving the user the ability to explore new avenues. Perhaps my interest now is in SSB and casual conversation. That may change and the rig could grow with me.
Again, my thanks to everyone who shared their experiences and ideas. I am going to look for a good used rig but I don't think I will find many sellers on this message board. Hope to join you soon.
