Q3 is the external relay keying transistor, typically used to key an
amplifier. It is operated as a saturated switch, and has extremely low
"on" resistance, so it dissipates little power. We use a virtually
identical device in the KPA100 (K2/100 amplifier option).

It appears that Q3 is heat sinked directly to the PC board on page 13.
