In the few K3 photos that have gotten out,
and which have appeared in various places - it looks
as if the basic K3 has tons of un-used space
inside the cabinet? And there didn't appear
to be a lot of SMD's showing? Am I missing
something?
Last photo I saw (from an Alaskan ham event) -
it looked like 1 large heat sink, 1 large PCB,
1 small PCB and a ton of extra space. (and of
course, the front panel)
When I opened up my 5/2007 IC-706MKIIG - the
very first PCB of many, has literally tons of
SMD's everywhere one could see.
Perhaps the K3's shown in photos, are not
fitted out with all the options, filters,
2nd receivers, etc. But I didn't see too many
surface mounted PCB plugs either.
It will be interesting to get our hands
on it when it ships! I guess it is a little
like buying that 1953 6-cylinder Chevy Corvette,
before it hit the show rooms, and without
touching one. Only distant photos ......
