The K3 ssb output issue was fixed in the previous firmware release.
FWIW, I own both and enjoy using both rigs. IMHO, the Orion does a
few things better and the K3 does a few more things better. The
steady, rapid improvement of the K3 firmware has been most impressive.
The K3 is a small radio with a small display, and that alone will
rule it out for many users. If small is not a problem for you, the K3
has too many positive things going for it to be ignored if you're
considering a new radio. If you're considering a used radio, the
Orion is unbeatable.
