If you're a serious CW op you'll want a narrow-bandwidth crystal filter. The stock SSB filter is fine for casual CW operation.

If your computer doesn't have an RS-232 port, you'll need a KUSB USB-to-RS232 adapter so you can do firmware updates.

Other than that, a bare-bones K3 is quite sufficient.

Icom 756 Pro II.


I’ll assume I won’t need the internal atu with the K3, and will add
the P3 and IF out board when the time comes.  I’ll get the interface
cable to the KAT500…  With this bare bones K3, is there anything else
that you all might feel is indispensable?


73 to all and good DX
