Same feeling here. I run a K3/KPA500 at the home QTH (in Colo.) but built a
KX3 (s/n 5411) to take with me for the few weeks when I am working away from
home (in NY). With the simplest low dipole it's a kick to work the world with
5 watts - and even more so to sneak through a pile-up. As a new QRPer myself I
was attracted by the "KMPW" challenge (though I can't recall who's sponsoring
it) - "thousand miles per watt." I am at a little over 0.9 KMPW with the KX3
so far; I heard that someone did a 9,000 mile QSO with 500 mw, for 18KMPW.
