Guy said it well. I'm a member of the Northern California Contest
Club, one of the largest. Our members probably own at least 100 K3s.
I own two. My neighbor K6XX owns four, and is a very sharp engineer
who works for Elecraft. He says the the K3 is very well protected,
and that there is no heat problem. Several of our members were early
beta testers. Many of our members, especially those owning K3s, are
very agressive contesters -- that is, we transmit a lot. Some
contests require that we run barefoot, including several RTTY
contests.
W0YK is one of our more agressive members, a world champion RTTY
contester, and an early beta tester. His response to this thread,
before he hurried off to Dayton, was the same as Guy's -- there is
no heat problem. He should know.
