Comments:

I just received an Elecraft KX3 a few days ago and really wanted to try it out
this weekend.  I am very impressed with this little rig.  I had to keep the cw
input in "key mode" so the computer could generate CW, this meant NO paddles
(because I don't have an external keyer).  Another drawback, the radio would
get hot running full power out (12w) and throttle back.  A 12v computer case
fan sitting about 6" away from the radio solved that problem.  It really
performed well with crowded bands and loud signals. 

Equipment: KX3 at full power driving a pair of 3cx800's, 500-800w out.  Hexbeam
at 45', 40/80 fan dipole at 35'.
