[Elecraft] Just Received my New KX3

My KX3 arrived today. My first new radio in over 35 years. What do I do now besides stare at this technological little wonder. Just kidding. I'll dig into it tomorrow and figure it all out. I'm finally catching up with the current times. Looking forward to this new radio. -- View this message in
