[Elecraft] KXBC3 battery charger

[QRP5W at roadrunner.com]

Hi Frank,

I operate, or at least listen quite a bit with my KX3 outdoors even if
it's just out in the back yard. I find the charger to be
indispensable. I use the ubiquitous Radio Shack 3A P.S. and Eneloop
batteries and don't know how I would manage with this setup.

Yes, the clock is not very accurate but I barely use that feature.

I say go for the charger!

 I have a KX3 bought new in 2018 that has close to all of the
available
 options with the exception of the KXBC3 battery charger.

 Until now I haven't paid much attention to this, as I've usually used
 the radio with a Pro Audio PSU when 110vac is available, otherwise
with
 a Bioenno external battery. But I may be using it more in backpack
 situations, and am on the fence on whether I'd get much use out of a
 KXBC3. Obviously everyone has to make this decision for themselves
based
 on their usage habits. Just curious, though, is anyone finding the
 internal charger really useful? Or not? It doesn't sound like the
 real-time clock is accurate enough to make it a reason to consider
 buying this.

 Thanks for any thoughts,

 Frank K6FOD
