Well, the two items focus on totally different areas of the ham station.
The analyzer will assist you in the various antenna installations to make the
system operate properly and efficiently.The panadapter will assist you in the
operation of the station, once the station is operating properly
If you focus is on going to a lot of places to operate with out the analyzer
the ATU will make the KX3 happy, but not make the antenna as efficient as
proper tuning of the antenna will do.If your focus is on data modes, the
panadapter will certainly be desirable.
The Buddipole has all of the items for 40 and up portable operation, but ground
conditions and antenna configuration will tend to make a final adjustment of
the antenna necessary to be matched properly, hence some method of looking at
SWR.
Good luck on your portable operation.

Hello all,
I am very new to the HF world and slowly putting together a portable
station. I'm looking for some advice on my next move.
I currently have a KX3 (installed KXFL3, KXAT3, KXBC3, KX3-2M), the
Elecraft MH3 microphone and a
(with extras for different configurations). I also have batteries and solar
panels for
external power.
The two items I have been looking at are the following:
1. PX3 Panadapter
2. AA-170 Antenna analyzer
Which of these would probably provide the highest return for the
investment?
Thanks in advance for all the advice.
