[Elecraft] Using SB 200 With KX-3

[Ken Schillinger]

Hi,

My name is Ken / ke7hge and I'm new to the group.

I haven't purchased a KX-3..yet. I am on the cusp.

One question I have is regarding the possibility of connecting the KX-3 to a
Heathkit SB 200 I have setting here. I bought the amp, installed the Harbach
(sp?) soft key and soft start mods with the idea of using it with my Yaesu
897d. I have never hooked it up, but then again I have 100 W available with
the 897. I'm considering selling my 897 to partially fund the KX-3, which
would leave me at 10 - 12W which is fine, except.sometimes higher power is
desired. What does everyone think, will the KX-3 and SB 200 be compatible,
and if so; will I be able to drive the SB 200 to a point where I will get
60-70 W output?

 

Thanks for your consideration, Ken / ke7hge
