If you are a visual learner, you might also consider watching YouTube videos about the K3S. A quick search shows that there are lots of hams - maybe not in Orlando - who are willing to assist you.

Orlando is also a fairly large geographic area.  There are plenty of
K3 users in the area but "hands on time" is impractical for someone
who might live in eastern Seminole County or northern Lake County,
etc.  Given the road situation, travel time to "the Disney area" would
amount to an hour or more *each way* ... might as well be asking for
help from the Tampa area.

Careful study of the excellent Elecraft manuals along with e-mail
assistance here is far more practical unless you can find another
user in southern Orange County, northern Osceola County or Polk County.

I know Orlando has an amateur radio club.  I would suggest you join that
club and seek out an "elmer" who would mentor you as you gain
experience. You can always rely on the people on this reflector to
assist you.  The manual is very good, but if you have a question then
ask it and give a reference page number. We will break it down for you.
You are very welcome to note my e-mail address and post any concerns to
me. You might start by telling us what modes you will be operating at
first. Will you be operating digital, voice, or CW? Have you put up
antennas for the bands you plan to operate? Glad to have you on board!

HELP NEEDED IN ORLANDO FLORIDA!!
Hi everyone
I am trying to ready myself for a K3S that I hope to have delivered in
the not too distant future. Hooray!!
The problem I face is that I really am a rookie and I need help, by
way of discussion and some "in shack" visual time as well.
Is there anyone who lives in Orlando that is running a K3S who would
be willing to give up some precious time to assist me in this crucial
set up period?
I can be contacted on:

glasse...@outlook.com<mailto:glasse...@outlook.com>

I would appreciate your generosity
