Perhaps as it should be. A bigger and more expensive radio is a better radio but one cannot take the bigger radio everywhere. I assume you had roofing filters in KX3.
I used KX3 directly driving Expert 1.3k for at Easter Island during CQ WW SSB and a few days later in CW. KX3 was reliable and worked pretty well. But I had a feeling that discerning call signs in pileups was a bit worse in KX3. Also, a better speech processor makes K3 about 1-2 S stronger than KX3 at same peak power so no one can win a SSB contest with KX3. But KX3 is about 20% weight and 10% of volume.
