I like that the K3 is modular so I buy the options I want (though it seems like
I want all of them eventually).
I came pretty close to buying a second K3 and keeping it at 10 watts for use
with Transverters (may still happen someday).
I'd like to see Elecraft update their Transverters to match the K3, It is nice
to look across my desk and see matching gear.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Product Idea - 25 Watt PA for the K3
John,
Historically, Elecraft has always offered options - on the premise that
"if you don't need/want it, you don't have to buy it".
As a result, the KPA3, KAT3, Bandpass filters for general coverage, 2nd
receiver, DVR, extra roofing filters are optional.
For instance, those who want a transceiver only to drive VHF/UHF
transceivers do not want to buy the 100 watt PA, nor the KAT3. Those
who operate only QRP levels can pay for a K3S without the KPA3.
Certainly, it makes customizing your order a bit more involved, but you
end up with a transceiver that is tailored to your needs and operating
preferences.

Don W3FPR
