You need to consider that they are comparing the K3 to
a Kenwood TS-850SAT which has more punch than almost
any other transceiver. The TS-850 has a system called
High Boost which shapes the audio to put more power
into the higher audio frequencies and a very good
speech processor. I don't have a
I have a Heil HC4 mike on my headset and all it would
take is a tie-wrap or a piece of tape. It is just a
piece of 1/8 tubing with a mike on one end and a cord

But I like the HC10 headset that goes with it. I
don't have a K3 to use it with yet,
I have a Jetstream JTPS28M ($99 from RL Electronics)
that I am using to power a Yaesu FT-900 and a Kenwood
TS-850S that is rated 25 amps continuous and 32 amps

supply. It includes voltage and current meters and
binding post as well as cigar lighter
I don't know the answer to that question Paul, but I
am an engineer. My best guess is that no one knows
the answer for sure until the problem is solved. I am
confident that they will do their best to confine the
changes to the sub-receiver module, but the best laid

in hand.

or less amplifier
sufficient. However, 10 watts is not enough drive for most amps, so check the
drive required before you buy. I get about 30 or 40 watts out of the 4-572Bs
on 10 meters with 10 watts of drive. Many amps will require less drive than
the Clipperton L, so check.

AD5X offers the product in kit form. You need to be able to solder small
stuff, but it is duck soup compared to a WinKeyer, much less a K2.

I do have a KAT3 and have never owned a KAT2 or KAT100. My owners manual is
the one that came with the K3 in June of 2008. It does not say anything except
pushing the ATU Tune button. What you say is news to me!
