It should work fine. I was able to get about 100W out of a Drake L-75. Just tune the plate and load controls for maximum RF output. (There's not much point in trying to dip the plate current. Since almost all the current is resting current, you don't see much of a dip.) Alan N1AL On 2/7/2

Hi, My name is Ken / ke7hge and I'm new to the group. I haven't purchased a KX-3..yet. I am on the cusp. One question I have is regarding the possibility of connecting the KX-3 to a Heathkit SB 200 I have setting here. I bought the amp, installed the Harbach (sp?) soft key and soft start mods
