Cort,

I have been doing just that​.  Bought a K3S at Huntsville hamfest.  4O3A w2x8 antenna switch and interface genius with extender.  Also bought an Ameritron 1306.  I'm waiting for the expert linear 1.5 for my next amp.  Still using my Ft1000mp and Amp Supply LK-800A as second radio.  Eventually I will get either another K3S or a SunSDR.  I need to stop spending money on equipment and get the towers and antennas up. lol!

Neal, K4EA

I am thinking about changing rigs and looking for any comments/opinions on the K3S Elecraft and accessories and new amp KPA1500. I would like to get to where everything is automatic.... tuning, band switching etc.... yes i am getting lazy... plus too easy to make mistakes when amp tuning.... can't see what I am doing any more.... don't remember where I put my reading glasses etc! Anyway, thinking about taking current rig to Orlando in February and start over with Elecraft. How do they interface with a computer.... currently using MicroKeyer2 with Fdx5000 and two amps hf and 6. Don't get me wrong.... i love my 5000 but the eHam reviews all seem to give the K3S a huge thumbs up. So far just in thinking about stage! thanks and 73's Cort K4WI
