I used my K3 at 1 watt this past spring and summer to work QRP DXCC. Also
worked a couple of Eurpean stations at .1 watt. Got a QRPp certificate for
that. Lots of fun but somewhat challenging.

With enough THRUST pig fly just fine.

I agree that the K3 is an amazing QRP rig. Ran the K3 at 5W on ssb
sweepstakes with great results. Think I had a few non believers that I
was really QRP. No regrets geting the KPA3 for full power but still
enjoy QRP on a regular basis and for this the K3 rocks. I really enjoy
the ability to adjust power at such fine steps. Want to run at 1W.
500mw 100mw? I can do it. an uncommon option on many other rigs.

with the South Cook Islands using my K3/10 at only 10 watts on 15 meters
today. I only have an invergted vee up about 30 ft. for an antenna and run
my K3 at 10 watts almost exclusively.
