It's not quite that simple. To be really useful, the KX3 would also have to 
support the special protocol we use between the P3 and K3 that keeps track of 
VFO frequencies, modes, filter bandwidth, etc. There's quite a bit of firmware 
involved. But I agree this would be a nice addition.

Umm... I don't know how else to put this but... Eric, -you- started the
rumor. Back on 18-Dec-2011, while we were waiting on our KX3s, you posted to
this list. For brevity's sake, I have not copied out the entire exchange
that was going on at the time. I know you have a lot of irons in the fire
right now, but hopefully, this could be fit in the queue somewhere. The
hardware would actually be fairly simple, upconverting the KX3 I/Q to the
same IF as the K3...

Not so. We also plan to offer a small IQ to P3 adapter for the KX3, which
will give users full P3 operation with the KX3.

Stay tuned!

I'm not sure where this rumor was started. While we certainly would like to
do something like this, we have not announced that we are developing it. >
We do not have an active project to do this at this time.

We have been absolutely maxed out in engineering on many other projects,
including the KXPA100 and the upcoming 2M option for the KX3.
I apologize if any of our postings have created confusion regarding this.

My first post to the reflector. I hope it works out. I have a KX3 #3147 and absolutely love it. I was completely spoiled by having owned a FlexRadio SDR 1000. I'm sure the majority of P3 owners will agree that once you have operated with a panadapter, going back to a radio without one is the equivalent of operating blind.

I use my KX3 as a base station. I operate QRP exclusively so I don't need the amp. I may pick up the FM module. But I will tell you this. I'd buy an KX3/P3 adapter and a P3 instantly if Elecraft offered that setup for sale.

I've got my cheque book out and am ready to go. Get the project folks working.
