*/This is subjective I offer it as my opinion I do *not* like the West 
Mountain Radio com speakers I have tried them on several of my radios 
and are back in the box in the closet.

What I found works with nice sound reproduction is the Jam plus 
(Bluetooth) wireless speaker you can plug in with a 3.5 stereo (male) 
both ends from the headphone out of the KX3 into one of the Jam plus.

They are  small great sound ( full range) if you require com audio set 
the RX eq up to your liking.

The only draw back is mini USB port for charging will need power input 
for more than 4 or 5 hours of running off the internal battery.

A possible solution is a back up smart phone battery to power for long 
periods of operating or plug it or them I have two into the USB port on 
you computer if you have one along. The pair of Jam Plus will connect 
(pair) up together via there Bluetooth so the connection to the KX3 only 
needs to be on one of the speakers. Paring them requires a pair of the 
same speaker models.

I have not tried the pair on the KX3 in stereo to test  RX split like 
when using the headphones. I have run the pair on a IC 7300 and so far 
this pair of speakers (and I have tried many many speakers on my 7300) 
these are the best so far.

Read the reviews see if this will work for you I think Wayne first 
brought these speakers to the group a several years ago.
