Hi Jim,
I recently purchased my KX3 and intend on doing a lot of digital modes.
I looked into 3rd party heatsinks, but was notified that Elecraft uses a
new improved heatsink that wraps around the bottom of the KX3.
So my question to you is, do you have the newer KX3 Elecraft heatsink or
the older model? I was going to work mine first to see how hot it gets
before making a move if the newer heatsink is acceptable. I can't find
any reviews of it.
I will definitely be watching this thread to figure out if I too want to
purchase the 3rd party Pro Audio Engineering KX32 Ultimate Heatsink as a
replacement.
Regards,

I've been doing a lot of FT-8 using my KX3 and my KXPA100 at 20 watts,
and have noticed that the KX3 is heating up quite a bit and is almost
hot to the touch. The KXPA100, while warm, appears to be okay.
Should I consider purchasing a heat sink for the the KX3? If so, what
products in your opinion are the best?
Thanks,JimW7JHR
