P3 question

[Ai4PF]

I am considering buying a P3. Is it necessary to also purchase the KXV3
or the KXV3a?

One or the other is required.   See the red text on

http://www.elecraft.com/P3/p3.htm

"Note: Either the KXV3 or the KXV3a K3 option is required to feed the K3's
IF output to the P3."

You will need the KXV3 or -3A to bring out the IF to the P3.  The
KXV3A is necesary only if you are running the K144XV internal 2m
transverter.

There is also a mod listed that increases the IF output to a level
that's best for the P3.  You can find the mod under K3 Mods and App
Notes on the www.elecraft.com web page.  If your K3 dates from before
about 9/2009, the mod is suggested if the P3 is used.  This is all
spelled out in the mod document.
