There a LOT of differences between the K3 and the K3S. Many are minor improvements but some are major. Built in low noise 6M pre-amp for one. You don't have to buy the outboard unit. Somewhere I made a list of them all when I was considering whether to upgrade my K3 or buy a new K3S. After looking at all the pluses, I went with the new radio. Also, many of the K3 options will work in the new K3S too, so I basically bought a bare-bones K3S-100W version and swapped the filters etc.
