I think the KX3 form factor works out well as a home station. The face is larger than a lot of other radios and in my opinion the ergonomics are better than the K3. My KX3 station (KX3 and KXPA100) is my second home station to my FTDX5000MP and the the station I take to my second QTH when we go there.

I have been through many current rigs for this use until I settled on the KX3, primarily due to the great specs, but also due to the super flexibility. The one feature I also wanted was something that could run of batteries for emergency use and the KX3 is vastly frugal compared to anything else out there.

Don't discount the KX3 setup as a great home rig.

The KX3, in my opinion, is not suitable for a home station, because of the form factor, the way accessories are connected, etc. Again, this is just my opinion, but I know some others share it.
