I have had my K3 for about a year now. There have been some teething
pains and I have been vocal about it. However, that said - my K3 is,
without a doubt, the best rig I have owned in well over 50 years of
operating.
The ability to customize the rig to be your own makes it very desirable

Chris,
You say, not much room - how about a linear supply on the floor under
the desk? It does not take up much space there. None of my power
supplies occupy desk space.

You may also want to look at the solid-state PS from http://Power-werx.com
model=SS-30.
I picked up one in a raffle and it powers the K3 just fine with a very
small footprint, two power poles in the front and a pair of terminals in
the back.

The main reason why most devices take DC in rather than bringing in
direct AC is because they can pass all the safety work on to the brick
manufacturer and it saves them a lot of money in the regulatory end.

I completely agree with Joe, but I'm guilty of using a common supply for the
K3 and switching
While I can't disagree with the recommendation for a linear
supply (I have an Astron RS-35A for each K3), I recommend
avoiding the PowerPole distribution blocks and would power
station accessories - particularly any accessory that touches
the audio - in the shack from a SEPARATE supply.

Linear (no noise) with meter. Last 12V supply you will
need. Build an Anderson supply cable. Use a "Red-Dee 2

Much less expensive than the others and they work well.

I have an Astron RS-35M as my power supply through a Rigrunner to my K3/10.
Enough left to upgrade to K3/100.

Yup .. I'd get something around 13.8V - 30A surge :p

Hi Chris,
Hope you enjoy your K3.
One thought: If you operate any CW or narrowband data at all, I think
you'll want at least one narrow filter (500 or 400 Hz). It'll make a
huge difference in crowded band conditions. If you're strictly into
voice modes, you can do without.

I bought an MFJ 4125P a few days before I received my K3 so I would have
something that would work and would be easily portable and with the
intention of buying a power supply for non-portable use later, which I
haven't done yet. The MFJ 4125P is somewhat, but not terribly noisy.
In my case,

Welcome to the family.
I'm using an Astron RS-35M, it's what I had. I found I had to set the output to
13.8V
for the K3 to operate correctly.
