I have heard the suggestion from Wayne that the KX3 is designed to be a 
super-compact user interface that sits on the operating desk, and the 
100w PA/ATU can be anywhere, like under the desk.

If you've ever tried to figure out how to drag stuff for a DX trip on an 
airline, you've got to love the design of this new radio system!  Those 
you need a big boat on your operating desk are welcome to line up at the 
TenYaeComWood booths. I'm FAR happier with the options that Elecraft 
provides us.

Talk about dragging stuff for a DX trip -- W0YK travels several times a 
year from SFO to Aruba with two K3s in Rose Copp cases as carry-ons and 
uses them to set world records in RTTY contesting.
