Yikes...the SP3 price converted to Australian Dollars comes out to $253.00 plus
freight.
The joy of living in a resource rich country with nowhere to sell it :-(
Time to start saving the pennies

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft SP3 External Speaker details
My shack is a bit cramped too. Currently I have a couple of really inadequate
computer speakers sitting atop another rig near the K3/P3 combo. That rig sits
atop the RF deck of an ALS-600, which itself sits on top of a KAT500 that's in
turn sitting on top of a now-unused MFJ-998.
So that's quite a "tech stack" already.
Perhaps the advent of the SP3 will give me a reason to rearrange all that stuff
so that I can have a good speaker (or two :)). Come to think of it, replacing
the ALS-600 with a KPA500 would free up a bit of space as well and improve
aesthetics at the same time. Wayne, you may have just engineered another
Elecraft tipping point.

Wayne,
I already have a KX3 and I love it for portable QRP work. The very idea of
hiding it away in
an SP3 though is just wrong. Of course, you would never do that — would you?
