I bought two KPODs right away Ed.   I’m a DXer and have always enjoyed busting 
pileups … especially the big ones that take up lots of bandwidth.   IMHO the K3 
VFO B knob has always been rather klunky …. Doesn’t spin easily…. Small, etc… 
so has always been awkward to use it while searching through a large split 
pileup while trying to find the station the DX is calling….. so I use the KPOD 
to tune VFO B most of the time…. And it works great …. The P3 and Subreceiver 
are also really great tools for the big pileups.   I use the programmable KPOD 
buttons a lot …. A few for sending recorded DVR messages (both CW and SSB) …. 
And others for switching A/B, A>B, Split +2, Split +5, Split/Unsplit, 
Subreceiver on/off …. And switching power between 100W and 30W (for driving the 
amp) …. Now that I have a KPA1500 which can do the drive power switching for me 
when I go between operate and standby there’s no need for the power switching 
anymore … 

I love my KPODs
