[Elecraft] [KX3] KXPA100/KXAT100

[Don Wilhelm]

Rick,

The plan as I know it is to have both the amp and tuner in the same 
enclosure.
I do not know about the distance, but consider that the plan is to have 
the amp and tuner mounted remotely in a vehicle - say with the amp and 
tuner in the trunk and the KX3 "up front" - so my judgement tells  me 
that 15 to 20 feet of wire length separation must work if that goal is 
to be accomplished.

I have no idea about the date

73,
Don W3FPR
