Hi Elecrafters, I am the proud owner (are as opposed to the unproud owners) of K3 #647. And a K2 and K1 before it. I strongly believe in the Elecraft business model, with its closeness to the customer and excellent service in support of world class equipment made here in our country (well, some of it), yet relatively affordable. Not an easy task, but the Aptodians have done it.
But I, too, have become concerned that the K3 is becoming just another menu driven radio - with so many parameters that the result is brain paralysis. How many AGC parameters does one person need, even with different modes and band conditions? How many angels really can dance on the head of a pin? When is enough enough? I'd rather see Elecraft complete the original feature list. What ever happened to synchronous detection? The hope of a keyboard connection? Or for that manner, a tightly integrated panadapter? An up-to-date, complete owner's manual? In my view, we've done a year of beta testing, and it is time to move on.
