I have a KX3 fully loaded (KXFL3, KXAT3, KXBC3, KX3-2M) the only one I

don't have the oomph to justify adding them for me and having the RTC
doesn't really matter to me, your needs might be different. I just use an
external LiFePO4 pack for power.
My KX3 isn't fully loaded, but does have the KXBC3 fitted. Like Eric, if
I was buying it again, I wouldn't bother with this board. As it is, I
power the radio with an external LiFePO4 pack. I also don't _need_ to
RTC, but I suppose it is useful to see the time for the log.
I wish I had the internal tuner fitted - I have heard nothing but good
about it. I have an external T1 which has developed a fault, so I bought
an N7DDC ATU-10 from banggood to keep me going until I have an
opportunity to troubleshoot the T1. It is quite a statement on the
current world situation that I can buy a very capable QRP tuner for less
than the repair costs for my T1 and get it from China in less than two
weeks!
Enjoy your KX3 when you get it - it's a fantastic radio!
