More on 1E for FD, QRP K3?

[Doug Faunt N6TQS [phone]]

Does the K3 cut off the 100W PA when the power is set to QRP levels?  Or am
I conflating that with the K2?
I'm looking to run 1E for FD without spending too much on a battery.
Although a big battery and/or using the KX3 are beginning to look more
attractive.

I wish I had the marginal size 31 battery I took out of HARVEY GAMAGE last
summer, but that was 9 months ago and in Maine.
73, Doug

The KPA3 is not used until you set PWR to greater than 12 Watts.

You can also disable the 100 watt PA in the menu to prevent possible
over driving of any qrp rated accessories.
