Thanks - yes, I was including that in my verbal "equipment" bundle.
Looks great!
Moreover, no PC near the radio. So, more hardware too. I am
(probably to your chagrin) a pretty old-fashioned guy when it comes to
radio. I like the catch to be fairly tough (although QRN sucks).

Like I said, my antenna is 30' away from my computer. I live in a
neighborhood with underground power lines and no detectable light
dimmers. I can hear very weak stations from Europe that no one else on
the West Coast of the USA can get.
No one? And you know this how?
My K3 was the only 20 meter PSK31 autospotter (out of at least a dozen
on the West Coast) to hear a station from Scotland last week. This
stuff is reported on a Google map in near real time. SWLs are welcome
to participate. It's jolly good fun and boffo yocks. Sure beats
trying[?] to hear 100,000 Watt stations from Maine or Cuba.
