I also have an Icom Pro3 with the Inrad roofing filter, and considered
selling it when I bought my KX3 system. Looking at the going rate for
the pro3 I decided just to keep it. Sentimental value as well since it
was my first HF rig and I did the Inrad installation myself. (What a
challenge that was, but it works great!)
I hope you get a good price for the Pro3. Please let me know how that
goes... I may still look to selling mine.
In my opinion the KX3 is better and I use it almost exclusively now, but
the Pro3 is still a great rig.

I was an Icom fan right up until I bought my K2 years ago....

Subject: [Elecraft] IC-756 ProIII & K3S
Hello Everyone,
I am considering selling my Icom IC-756 ProIII, with Inrad roofing filter, to
help pay for a future K3S. While at the moment I am somewhat inactive, due to
work and my remodeling of my home, I don’t see myself getting a K3S until
Spring.
However, I the more I wait, the more the ProIII the value declines. I still
have another rig to use.
Question: In replacing the ProIII, what would be the best most economical add
ons to the K3S? I really like the fact that the Pro III has the “Dual Watch”
feature and I use a multi-band antenna via Icom remote antenna “tuner” (AH-4).
I would to use the K3S with an SGC coupler (I think I’ve read that you can
program the K3 to provide 10 watts to “tune” the antenna).
I”d like to hear from anyone who has gone from the Pro III to the K3 or K3S and
get their advice (all others are welcome, too).
Tnx & 73,
Jeff
