HI Gary:
One aspect of the KX3 is that you can get a bare-bones version… at $900.. and you would have a very functional portable QRP rig. And, as finances permit, you can add the options. That way you don’t have to pony up the entire $3K at one time.
And, even with the bare bones kit, you’d still have the latest firmware at the time of production, and a quite capable multi-mode, multi-band transceiver.
