The Base K3 comes fully equipped to do what you wish at 10 watts power. Opt for the 100-watt version if you need the power. The included roofing filter will work on all modes for reception; if you want to transmit AM or FM, you will need the corresponding AM/FM roofing filter. All other transmit modes can use the stock 2.7 khz filter. All options can be retrofitted to a K3 in the field by the user. The second receiver is not needed for regular operation.
Monty K2DLJ Thanks, in advance for your help! I apologize if this question has been asked before, but here goes. What would be the least expensive initial configuration for a new (factory assembled) K3? My operating preference is SSB, but I may try some of the digital modes at some point. I can do without the general coverate receive feature, but I'm not sure about the need for the second receiver for the K3. Also, will the stock filters (including the roofing filter) be good for awhile? What other options should I consider and would you recommend any of the K3 mods that have been produced? Can the other options be easily added in the future? Again, thank you for your advice. Very 73, Jim K9RII
