Did the original poster (N7TGC) ever say he wanted to go portable? If he’s looking for a desktop rig, I’d start with one of the used K3 rigs that we see for sale on this list.
Just yesterday, there was a 100W K3 with a 250 Hz filter for $1695. A new KX3 can cost almost that much. Add a P3 and you are still cheaper than a KX3 + KXPA100. wunder K6WRU Walter Underwood CM87wj http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) > On Apr 13, 2017, at 8:23 AM, Jim Brown <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Wed,4/12/2017 7:32 PM, Dan Baker wrote: >> An integrated pan >> adapter into the face of the radio is much better than an external unit. >> You see the whole picture at once.
