I just got my UPS tracking number and my new K3s will arrive on Wednsday. So now the decision of whether to keep my K3 100 as a backup or sell it.

It is s/n 8164 and was purchased in April of 2014. It is a basic K3. Has the KTCX03-1 1ppm TCXO and the 2.8kHz 8 pole filter, KANT3 (no antenna tuner). It currently has the K144XV-100-K 2M module installed but my plans are to transfer that to the new unit. I do not use the K3 for 2M FM so there is no FM filter.

I use a Timewave Navigator for a one USB connection to the confuser. The Navigator has a very low noise USB Codec and six serial ports, CAT, PTT, CW Winkey, RTTY (sure enuff FSK), Aux RS232 (full RS232 great for checking/installing new firmware in the KPA500) and a configuration port for the Navigator itself. Using the Navigator I have never had to re-cable to do firmware updates to the K3 or the P3.

Together, the K3 and the Navigator integrate so well together, I am anxious to see if the K3s with its new interface does it all as well as the current setup.
