[Elecraft] KX3/K3 and KPA500

[Phil Hystad]

KX3 has dual-watch and the K3 doesn't.  I would like to use my KX3 for DX that often operates split and so far working without also listening on the split TX frequency is giving me a clear disadvantage.   This is all CW, not SSB.

Since I only have the KX3/10 right now, I am thinking that I could use it with my KPA500 when I am operating at home.  I have not yet acquired the KXPA100.

If there is a better alternative (yes, buying the Sub-RX is better but that is future too) then let me know.  I don't particular like the REV feature for switching TX/RX but it is a cheap alternative but just not as nice as dual-watch (or, SubRX).
