[Elecraft] Dummy load for KPA3?

[Don Wilhelm]

That Ridge Equipment dummy load is very good - I would recommend it 
highly for any measurement or calibration work.  I would not exceed 75 
watts with it.
If you want a dummy load to leave connected to your K3 when not in use 
and general all-around the shack work, you might want to consider 
building one in a quart paint filled with mineral oil - see: 
http://www.k4eaa.com/dummy.html - I have two similar dummy loads here in 
quart cans and a larger one in a gallon can that have served well for 
many, many years.
