[Elecraft] Buying a new K3/100 kit - Top 3 options?

[Keith Heimbold]

I know I am late to this game but I recently got my K3 back and I missed or need these features the most.

1) KXV3 - for my receive antennas. 
2) Fully filled up filters in your receiver - still want to get either 700 kHz or 1k filter for it. I have 13k, 2.8k,1.8k, and .25k. 
3) and I like the KAT3 even though I don't need it with my home station but I plan to take it portable

That is it. Sorry for late arrival.

Thank you to those that have responded both on-list and off. I very much appreciate the input. I've tallied the suggestions and here's what came out:

There are a LOT of options listed for the K3 on the Elecraft site, and I'm a total newbie, so I'm appealing for help from current K3 owners. I plan to chase DX primarily and hope to learn more about the digital modes, though CW isn't of significant interest at this point.
