I agree on the Mic and ATU, Phil. Not using an
outboard ATU is a good thing for portability, and
the Mic is a very good one.
The filter is also a good thing to have especially
if you are near strong signals, so I'd get that,
too. Internal batteries: Depends on if you plan to
always carry external power source or not.

Phil,
I would order the radio with mic and ATU.
There are only 2 more real options, an
additional filter and realtime clock with
battery charger. I have all of it in mine plus a
few 3rd party supplied options, however, I don't
use the internal batteries and clock nor the
additional filter as I use the 8KHz receive
offset. everything else is already included.
Even though you own an LDG ATU, I would still
recommend the built in ATU. It is more flexible
and is integrated nicely as a part of the system.

Subject: [Elecraft] Options for KX3
I am considering selling off my FLEX-1500 and
Ten-Tec Argonaut VI to buy a KX3. It will
mostly be used for vacations, Field Day or park
and backyard portable. I will mostly use
resonant antennas and do have an LDG Z-11Pro
tuner (has internal batteries) which could be
used, so not sure about the internal tuner and
may eventually get the amp too. I mostly
operate CW and some WSPR/JT-65HF and have a
portable paddle. What options will I need for
my types of operating? I am trying to not max
out my budget.
Thanks,
Phil N3ZP
