I second the comment by Fred, K6DGW, regarding the new paddle on the
front of the KX3. We were together yesterday at Pacificon when examining
it and it's both an excellent paddle and nothing like the paddle offered
as an option with the KX1. If I understood Wayne correctly, it is a
custom design. It is adjustable and sits on the front of the KX3 in a
comfortable operating position.
Wayne gave a very thorough presentation on the KX3, we got to handle one
of two at the booth, and the enthusiasm building for this latest
Elecraft product seems very well founded. The ordering lineup for this
baby is going to exceed all previous for new Elecraft releases.
At the HFPack forum session, it was enjoyable to hear Wayne's enthusiasm
for the KX3, field operations and QRP in general. It's very satisfying
to be supporting a company with leaders like Wayne and Eric who so
completely understand and stay connected with the amateur radio community.
Wayne said the field test team soon will have KX3s in their hands, so
product advancement is moving along very close to schedule. He also
indicated a provision for 2M operation looks like it can be fit into the
box.
