Nick,
I would think the PAE Kx33 supply would power the K3/10 nicely. You
would have to change the power connector to APP.
Now then, if you have any accessories connected to the K3 12 volt
output, you may need more current than the Px33 can deliver.
I normally recommend a 6 amp supply for K3 users only because they
usually have other accessories that are also connected to the power source.
The Kx33 is very good about RFI in the ham bands, and with my cautions
about adding accessories to the total load, it should serve you and your
K3/10 just fine.
Maybe you need two of them - one to power the K3/10 and another to power
the shack accessories.
73,
