[Elecraft] Rig forCW

[Brian Short]

I bought a used KX3 with the tuner and roofing filter a couple years ago.
I also bought an attachable paddle from QRPguys.  I have not been
looking, but I see very few KX2s for sale used.  I guess if you are ordering
(a new one) that isn't a consideration.

I am not out camping or traveling right now, but my KX3 isn't for sale.

Good luck.

I’ve ordered supplies to assemble a 40M inverted V and have been thinking the best first rig I ought to order would be a KX2.  Now reading the posts on this forum I see that 95% of the ops use the KX3s.
