I need to do some more experimenting to get a better handle on this, but I think it just depends on conditions. With the K3 preamp off on a quiet band (e.g. VHF) you definitely want the mod. On 80 meters in the summertime it's not necessary. If you don't do the mod you might need to use the preamp more often than you otherwise would. There's no reason not to do the modification other than the hassle factor. The P3 automatically bypasses its own preamplifier if the signal starts to over-range.
