I bought the K3/10 without 100w PA or ATU. I bought it mainly for
superior specs on CW, low phase noise, and versatility with
transverters on bands above 6m. I am into eme and mw! The K3 is
better (marginally) at this than the KX3, but physically larger so
not so handy to haul out to remote locations where one is hand
carrying gear (often up a steep trail).
So, I also have the KX3. Mainly for 6m & 2m (when the new module
comes out) and to interface with mw gear to use on those "high
places" with excellent shots needed for DX on microwave. It may turn
out the KX3 rivals the K3 for operating on dxpeditions (especially
eme dxpeditions) due to size.
Want the KX3 to have most of the features of the K3 then add the
KXPA100 and ATU. What a nice line-up for mobile!
My solution is to buy both! Then you have it all.
Oh did I say I also use both radios on 600m.
