Also interesting would be for what purpose the K144 has been bought. In Europe a big part of the VHF-community are contesters working cw and ssb. I dont think that we have to many K144-users for FM chatting. Speaking for myself I couldn't wait longer because our contest season starts next

I'd like to hear some more reviews on the K144XV. I've got mine on order and hoping it arrives before the P3 is shipping. But heck I'd love to setup both at the same time. Anyone who has had theirs long enough to warrant an eham review I would love to read your thoughts. So far only one person

I also ordered mine at Dayton and received it last week. It is installed and working 100%. I'm seeing the full 10 watts output. RX seems very good. Two small problems with the install. The supplied cross brace had one screw hole mis-aligned. Also the three screws to mount the 144XV to the side

Good point! I just checked my stainless steel screw kit and noticed that there are 3 of the small flat head screws that hold the sides and top on I assume that those are the replacements to put into the K144XV. Does one need a longer version of that screw or are they the same as the 9 that
