I have both K3 and KX3 and used both radios for contesting.

KX3 has much lower BDR and unusable when there is another local or strong inband transmitter. It also switches preamp off and ATT on automatically when the radio hears inband signal of 59+30db or more. Another shortcoming of KX3 is that the RX image channel is only suppressed by 50-60 DB. Conclusion:

K3 is sure much better radio for crowded contest then KX3.

problems in the multi transmitter environment with the use of the KX3.

I don't have a KX3, but a friend does and he has a question regarding the KX3 
receiver in a multi transmitter environment like Field Day.  I would not expect 
it to be as good as a K3, but is it usable?  Anything special you have to do to 
it?  I'm thinking at a minimum a set of band filters, which would be easy even 
with the 100 watt amp.

Thanks for your thoughts and experiences.

I worked through the nets in my memory and I did not feel right. I was certain 
I had worked Roy in Iowa but didn't remember typing his name.  I was right, I 
had made a mistake.  Mea culpa.
