I've decided to offer up K3/10 #495 for sale or possible trade. Rig works as
advertised, has the latest firmware, and is in like-new condition. The only
installed option is the 5-pole 500 Hz roofing filter. Built from kit
observing all ESD precautions. Only deviation from instructions was the use
of 2 zinc pan-head screws to secure the output transistors to the bottom
panel. (was short two black screws) Manuals, paperwork, and power cord
included, of course.
Will sell outright for $1,750 (double-boxed shipping and insurance included
to US only). Digital pics available on request.
Would also be very interested in swapping for a loaded Ten-Tec Omni-VI+
(Model 564) in like condition.
Why sell? It's strictly a matter of personal preference, mainly around
ergonomics issues. The Omni-VI rigs have been my main choice for some time.
There's no doubt that the K3 has better selectivity, and probably does a
better job of digging out the weak ones. But, I miss the big display, knobs,
analog S-meter, one-button pushes for band changes, band stacking, bandwith,
etc. I also find it is much easier to hold the REV button and tune the VFO
with one hand when working split on the Omni-VI than the K3.
If interested, please reply direct to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] to hold down list
traffic. I subscribe to the digest, so will not see list replies for some
period of time.
Tnx & 73,
Luther N4UW
