You could key it from a PC with a couple of RS232 commands, although  
the keying won't be shaped unless you do it externally.

As far as I know, no one on our staff has made a QSO on an XG3 yet.  
But keep in mind that 0 dBm is only 30 dB below 1 watt. So if your 1-W  
QRP rig is S9 at the receiving end, the XG3 would be about S3.

Suitable antenna design is left to the reader.
