[Elecraft] Adding the amplifier to the K3

[Dave G4AON]

When I received my K3/100 a year ago, the instructions were to build the
10W version and test it, then add the PA. Since then the instructions
may have changed. In any event adding the PA is quite straightforward.

The post and packing charges can add up if you buy accessories
afterwards, while it won't apply to yourself - here in the UK there is a
very expensive customs handling charge by UPS or even more expensive by
Parcel Force (£11 and £13.50 respectively when I bought the K3 and
accessories), so especially for overseas buyers it may be well worth
buying what you want in one package.

---------------------------------
During these trying economic times I'm not sure if I can swing the 100W
K3 right now, so I may just order the QRP version. How difficult is
adding the amplifier at a later date? Would it pay in time and
aggravation just to wait and order the 100W kit?
