For those who are interested, I have one of the early models that Rose
made custom for me.
While the XYL and I were at the International DX Convention in Visalia
earlier this year, someone borrowed one of her KX3 cases and took it to
the Elecraft booth.
It was a snug fit, and the KXPA100 missed fitting in by about 1" in height.
Rose was amenable to the modification, at no extra charge no less, and
also agreed to a larger back pocket so that Fred Cady's KX3 manual could
be carried as well.
I'm very happy with the way my case turned out. There's also plenty of
room for accessories (I have both side pockets) like headphones, paddle
and antenna.
As far as the market research question, I doubt that I will actually
take the KXPA100 portable, but I wanted that option if things changed
down the road.
Our local Field Day is 100% QRP and mostly Elecraft (K2s, one K3 and a
KX3 last year - more next year, including mine) so the KXPA100 won't be
needed for that event.
