Part of the "short comings" is largely from the fact I have used radios
from the major 4 companies for many years having been licensed for over
50 years. Each brand and model has or have their own uniqueness. I
don't want to come across in any form as negative or critical of the
Elecraft product. After all, I've spent nearly $4K for a new radio. I
view this as a wee bit more than "lunch money", although if I wanted or
needed other options or configurations, I would have acquired such.
And yes, if I should find issues, be assured they will be investigated
and documented and reported accordingly. Professionally, that's what
I've done in years past with regard to software and firmware based
systems. At the same time, I'm not interested in nit picking the
product. I will take it for what it is and not what I'd like it to be.
There is a significance difference.
One of my favorite sayings: "when one points the finger at someone or
something, they best look down for there's three fingers pointing back
at the more likely cause". I'll accept that on face value.

Having read several of your posts, I find it unfortunate for you that
you don't even have your K3S yet and you seem to have identified
several major shortcomings. Fortunately, I'm sure there will be
hundreds of opportunities to sell it should you find it is not up to
your standards.
The "master reset" feature is on page 72 of the manual. Elecraft calls
it "parameter initialization."
I sincerely hope you find the K3S more acceptable after you receive it
than you have while you've waited.

In this regard and while waiting on my new K3S to arrive, I've read
the manual several times. These discussions then raise the
question, "is there no Master Reset" that returns the radio to
factory default values? I may have overlooked this. However the
product not having a Master Reset I view is a major shortcoming of
the product.
If its there, I'd specifically like to know more.
