power supply for KX-3?

[NOEL POULIN]

Hello,
I would like to know what power supply to use with the KX3??
I will be using the kx3 at home only.What about a switching  power
supply? or a standard one??
I am not familiar with the kx3, so your comments would be appreciated.
Thanks
Noel

Noel -

I do not have a KX3, but a good buddy does and he uses this supply:
https://proaudioeng.com/products/pae-kx33-low-rfi-ac-power-supply/

He has been VERY happy with it, and has never noticed any issues like those
that sometimes occur with switching supplies. If you are sure you won't be
hauling it around a bunch, then any good clean supply will suffice.
Personally, I would look for a linear supply that had sufficient capability
that if I was going to add the PX3 and KXPA100, I would not then have to
look for another supply.

 I did use a friend's KX3 for several weeks when on vacation a couple of
years ago and it sure is a fine radio.

Best of luck.

Noel,

The Kx33 is a great power supply for the KX3 in QRP use.  If you plan to
add the PX3, they have a "Y" cable to allow you to power both from the
same supply.
OTOH if you want to also add the KXPA100, the Powerworks SS30DV supply
is excellent.  It is resold by Elecraft for your shopping convenience.
