“After sending my note about using the little MFJ power supply at 2.89 amps, 
I realized that it works fine on my FT-817D at 5 watts but would obviously 
be taxed at the full 12 watts of the KX3. So fuggetabowdit.”

The MFJ supply will power the KX3 just fine at 10 watts.  The KX3 draws 
about 2-amps at 10 watts.  I used the little MFJ supply (which is rated at 
2.8 amps) to power my IC-703 which also put out 10 watts at about 2-amps.
