As a portable user of the K2 and Vertex 1210, I was thrilled to hear about the new KX3.
After reading the preliminary specs however, I think I´ll stick to my existing radios. Why? - 10 W is insufficient power for portable SSB operation on the lower bands, at least in Europe. 20-25 W as the 1210 has is still low, but acceptable in terms of balancing power with current consumption. - My old 1210 has built in Lithium batteries which are light, high capacity and fast charging. Why not in the KX3??
