Terje,
A loss of power will not allow the KX3 to power down gracefully, so some
information such as what frequency, mode, and other data may be lost.
To insure a seamless transfer between batteries, you may want to design
your controls so that two battery packs are in parallel for a short time
rather than creating a gap in the power source to the KX3.

Hi,
I’m wondering if anything is known about how much of an intermittent loss of
power a KX3 will more or less not notice, during full use (transmit at 15W),
and during receive?
Asking because I’m considering some power solutions, and wondering if it could
be useful to switch between multiple battery packs in an automated way. For
that, it’d be useful to have some design targets. I’m assuming a loss of power
for 1ns would be a non-issue, and I’m assuming 10 seconds would be a huge
problem, but wondering if there are any definitive lines somewhere between
those extremes?
