P3 Panadapter now with Transmit Monitoring
The P3’s bright, full - color LCD has both spectral and waterfall displays, and new optional TX metering and signal envelope monitoring. The P3 has a faster sweep rate and better sensitivity than most built - in panadapters.

Seems you can upgrade bits but not the whole thing

If all the older "modules" are retro fit-able I can see quite a few
K3/10 barebones radios making it to the e... site in coming months.

Re: Eric's missing FDIM talk

In reply to this post by Jonathan Cullifer

Yeah, this just made my decision easier on whether to purchase a K3 as a complementary rig to my Eagle. I was pushing the "financial envelope" before the K3s upgrade. The extra $500 tipped the scales. I think I'll go with another Eagle, and make up a T/R switch to be able to use the second Eagle as "split" receiver.

Yep, and you will also wait for the Icom 8200SS, which will cost you $3-$5
kilobucks AND still not match the Elecraft solution.

My "Severe let down" comment was --only-- in reference to
the non-functioning video link to Eric's FDIM talk ... nothing
more.

If one were contemplating buying a K3, it seems that the price
for a K3s isn't much different.

I'm astounded that one poster considers the TenTec Eagle to
be in the same league with a K3/k3s. It simply isn't even close.

73!

In reply to this post by KC6CNN

It seems the K3S is an improvement in some areas,
but I wonder how much, really? The K3 will stay
near the top of the heap in the Sherwood table, to
be sure. Some of the upgrades can be added to our
K3s, if we so desire.

The advent of the K3S has not made my K3 worse
than it was yesterday; it just may not be quite
the "Best", perhaps by just an iota.

Perhaps I'm inadequately sensitive, but I don't
find it to be "a sad day". Just think how we'd
feel if instead of a K3S there had been an *all
new* K4.

Don't rule out a used K3, Ken. This announcement insures that there will
be some around. :) Not mine, though -- I've already bought the Synth
upgrade to three K3s, and may upgrade the I/O and preamp.

Think about this, Ken -- for any other mfr, a new rig like this would
obsolete the previous model. With Elecraft, we'll be able to upgrade
pieces of it that we care about for a fraction of the cost. The new
synth board, for example, costs about $200 and is easy to install.
