I get 200-250W from HLA 300 Plus with 5W from KX3. Suits me just fine. HLA 300 Plus sells at Amazon for under 500 $ Fully automatic and integrates perfectly with KX3.
With 80m antenna I also use KAT500 after HLA 300.

Not sure 11W drive is good for normal rag chewing with the KX3. It does get
rather hot to touch.

I would hope that the KXPA100 would only require 5W for 100W output or
close to that.

My KX3 will output 354w with 11w of drive power. I guess I really don't
need
one other than what I have.

Well it may be a waste of money for you but it is worth about 10 db to
everyone else...  ;<)  73, Greg-N4CC

I have been using my KX3 for a few months now, and never needed an amp.
Nine out of ten times, if I hear someone, they can hear me (CW).
Actually, even with my K1 at 6W, I never felt the need.
For SSB, I can see how it would help, but for CW, it's a waste of money.
