I should quit now, but I just realized that a bad review is a good thing
in one respect, it shows that if you get a bad radio, you're not alone.
There's probably TWO out there. :)
Honestly, I doubt all the radios are working at the time they're
received, but if you listen to some of the goings on here you'd think
that a bad radio means it's all your fault and you might as well find a
new hobby.
The good thing is that Elecraft (and Don, and Tom, and please excuse me
if I forgot your name here) will help you fix things. If we could only
focus on that.

When it comes to reviews, I tend to focus on the bad ones as the good
ones could simply represent someones feeling that they spent plenty of
money on something, it must be good. When it comes to ham gear, a bad
review without a call sign doesn't get much weight. I suppose the
reviewer in this case could have made up for it by giving the serial
number of his K3, but that wasn't included either. I don't think it
is a true review. Of course, my K3 has been ordered, my review will
follow after I feel I know the radio, it could be a few weeks, or it
could be a few months, I won't know until I know.

The reviewer (Solardx, no call sign) gives a very bad transmitter (SSB)
review. He claims lots of splatter and ineffective speech processing as
well as high IMD products. I have yet to hear a K3 but no one else has
noticed such problems?
