[Elecraft] KX3 power supply question

[Lance Collister, W7GJ]

Does anyone know if the KX3 can be used with an external 12-14 VDC power supply 
WITHOUT any batteries installed?  I know some devices such as computers require the 
batteries to be inserted even if they are not any good, to complete the circuit.

Leaving the batteries at home when traveling would help keep the weight down...  VY
