Thank you all for the replies to my question, not one "wise guy" reply at all and that is refreshing.
I do understand the allure of a very small radio that does it all and does it well; I have a spud gun I use to get my antenna wires over the tallest trees when I go camping and I usually operate QRP or close to it to conserve the deep cycle battery. I have though found the K3 itself to be a really small radio and works conveniently and is not an anchor. That said, it would be unwieldy to take a K3 on a backpacking trip and it appears the KX3 would be a fine companion and one with ears like a bat. Amazing to see a complete SDR HF radio that is smaller than my old FT-208R. Amazing indeed. Thanks for the thoughts. 73, Gary KA1J --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
