I added a heat sink to my KX3 a few years ago since I use it with long
"key-down" digital modes such as wsjt-x (primarily on 6m).
I obtained the heat sink from VE7FMN and it installed easily. Later
Elecraft came out with its version which I bought (but have not
installed). Being a thin metal plate didn't seem comparable in heat
conduction to the die-cast aluminum unit with cooling fins. I tried
finding VE7FMN's product and domain name is not registered so guessing
he quit making them.
