[Elecraft] KX3 Fixed Ops

[k4tmc at aol.com]

Re "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."  

Hopefully, it will be remote-capable like at the base of your vertical out in the back yard, at the feedpoint of your attic or tower mounted dipole, etc.

And hopefully, it will be directly compatible with a K2/10 and K3/10.

Wishing and hoping...

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.
