Hi everybody,

It has been a long time (2 or 3 years) since I have posted or looked at this
mailing list since I haven't been very busy with the hobby due to various
reasons such a work and family. 
After not being used for almost a year, I finally got to use my K3 again
this holiday in Denmark (call OV2T). 

Recently I have heard from a friend, who also has a K3, that there have been
a couple of hardware modification for the K3. My K3 (serial number 1849)
hasn't had any hardware updates at all and I was wondering which, if any,
would be useful for me.
Options:
- K3/100
- KDVR3
- KFL3A 400 Hz, 1.8 KHz, 2.1 KHz, 2.7KHz filters
- KAT3 

My K3 is mainly used in for Phone, occasionally for digital modes and CW. I
like contesting and doing Field day events, hence my choice for the K3.
I mostly use it with my headset (Heil Pro Set Plus) but I plan on using it
with a desk microphone and a pair of speakers in my new shack. The reason
for that is that with my headset on I won't be able to hear my wife. Now,
that's not necessarily a bad thing but I don't want her to get mad at me for
not listening at all. 

Any comments on what hardware modification could be useful for me would be
greatly appreciated.

Best 73,

Maarten PD2T/OV2T
