The KX3 appeals to the portable operator better than the larger
K2. Certainly some upgrades for it would be desirable.
But my KX3 replaced a FT-817. Main use is for mobile coupled with
KXPA100 and 2m amplifier (I have the 2M module). The other prime
use is as a 2m IF for my portable mw station where 1w is sufficient
on 2m to drive the 10 GHz transverter.
Glad to have IQ I/F for digital modes or spectrum sw run in a laptop.
Better freq stability on 6m & 2m would be nice.
BTW the KX3 has been used on 2m-eme for DXpeditions where small size
matters. Its small enough to pack in my carry-on luggage.

My wish list for the KX3 would be to serve as K2 replacement,
