Jack,
Welcome to the K3 family. I got mine in early January (Serial #3799). But, I can't imagine using the same radio for 22 years. Of course, my total ham radio operator time is only 7 years: one year as a Novice in 1965/1966 and 6 years as a Extra beginning in 2004. But, I am looking forward to the K3 to be eclipsed by something even better from Elecraft in the future and while I am waiting I will probably absorb most of the new gizmos that they come out with like the P3, future KPA500, etc. I am waiting for my P3 to arrive now.
So, when you hear me on 3970 KHz, I am on my K3.
73, phil, K7PEH
