Brian,
The answer is YES, you can add any of those options later.
Review your operating aspirations to determine which options will
provide the most benefit for you, and in what timeframe.
If you have resonant antennas at the home station (or are willing to use
a manual tuner initially), then you can put off the KXAT100.
If your main immediate goal is for portable operation, I would suggest
that the KXAT3 would be a great help as well as the internal battery
charger, but if your portable operation is on hold for the Winter, then
you can add those next Spring.
I am suggesting that you look at the sequence for adding your options in
a way that will provide the most benefit for you while adhering to your
ham budget.

Further to my earlier post I've decided to move forward and go with the
KX3/KXPA100 combo to replace my ft817 AND my Kenwood TS590. The ft817 has
already found its new home and my TS590 will soon be next. Again, it will be
nice to just have one radio for base and QRP on trips.
I priced out what I think I'll need and it comes to $3.5k US ($5k cdn) so I'm
hoping this can be done in stages.
So my question is if I buy just the KX3 and KXPA100 to start, will I be able to
add in the internally mounted upgrades such as both antenna tuners, roofing
filter, vhf module, battery charger etc later? Or are there certain options
it's better to include upfront? Ve3bwp
