I am very interested in the K3 for use as a portable rig while camping. Have
any of you new owners taken the K3 outside and operated portable on battery
power? If so, what were you impressions?
We had three (3) K3s operating at K7S (Salmoncon 2007), last July. Yes,
they were field tester rigs. They worked well for us.
We used a large battery and had no trouble keeping them going as long as
we liked. I also took mine to a Field Day site last year and let some
of the folks operate it for a few hours.
Currently, the Ducie Island DXpedition is K3-equipped. This is
definitely portable/camping-on-the-beach operation :-)

Enjoy!
