If the idea of needing to use CW to make QRP contacts seems off-putting, you can always use PSK31. It's very popular now, and just as effective as CW at low power levels. In that respect, the K3 with its built in PSK31 support (and built-in CW decoder too) might be the better choice. -- Julian, G4ILO K2 s/n: 392 K3 s/n: ???
