If you have already had the KX3 for portable use, then internal KAT3 may not be
necessary. All depends on your operation style.

主題︰ Re: [Elecraft] Contemplating Purchase of K3
I would still consider adding the 100W internal ATU for a couple of reasons.
If your KAT500 goes out and you have to send it back to the mother ship for
repair, you'll still be able to use any antenna you want. You won't be forced
into finding resonant antennas for the bands you want to operate. Also, it
will be much easier to operate portable (I know, you have the KX3 :-) ) if you
ever want to do so. And, the K3 is a great rig for operating portable if you
want more juice than the KX3 offers. Just ask anyone who's been on the recent
DXpeditions that used the K-Line.
Hope this is helpful.

Subject: [Elecraft] Contemplating Purchase of K3
I’m thinking about purchasing the K3-100 kit. I plan start with the minimum
configuration and adding features as I get the $$.. I already have the KX3,
PX3 and am using the KPA500 and KAT500 with my 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
