Hi Jim, I think you'll find that the KX3 works just as well at home as in the field. The tilt feet in the back hold the radio at a very convenient operating angle, and all the cables we supply have right-angle plugs to keep things looking sharp.
I'd encourage anyone with a KX3 to keep a charged internal or external battery pack around, as well as a portable antenna system. You just might have a hankering to operating the field, or encounter an emergency situation. (You can create your own emergency situation, if necessary, by attempting to operate in the field with your old 50- pound radio :) 73, Wayne N6KR On Oct 20, 2011, at 7:06 AM, Jim Stoneback wrote: > Hi, > > I'm wondering if there is any chance that the KX3 might be offered > in the more traditional desktop configuration i.e. user interface on > a front panel, connectors on the back?
