I received my K3 today at 8:00am. I took and hooked my laptop up to it and saved the new configuration file. I thought I would try it as it came from the factory. I was on 30 meters and heard a cw signal. I don't know much about cw, between cw and a hole in the ground, I could tell you which one is the hole. lol I tuned in the cw signal and it was w5vyy calling cq. okay nervous about never having a cw contact I started typing in my untility programs and called him. He responded on the first call. Wow. I had a nice qso with him and he said my signal sounded great. This is with the same antenna that my kenwood would not tune. The k3 tuned it to a 1 to 1 first try. Now I have a lot of learning and exploring to do. I just wanted to thank the Elecraft bunch and especially Dale for helping me get my order and making such a great product. Got to jump off of here and get back to playing radio. Thank you all and I am sure I will have questions that I will need help with so thank to all on the reflector in advance. Gerald Manthey - KC6CNN
