Sorry if this has been brought up before, but I've been off the list for a while and haven't found an answer in the archives.
Is there any chance the KX3's 2 meter option could cover receive-only up to about 155 MHz? If not, without going into horrendous detail, what are the technical limitations preventing this (or are they financial as well?) I was glad to see that a 2 meter option is being considered. This sealed the deal for me on the KX3, as I like the idea of a compact HF mobile (and even desktop) unit, and I like to have 2 meters available in the mobile as well - but mainly as a scanner for my local FD/police freqs. I was (an still am) very interested in having this extended receive capability in the K3 as well, but I do understand it's not an option there. Do the KX3 and K3 share the same limitations (or whatever) in regards to lack of extended VHF receive? Not looking to start a "wish list" war but I suspect extended VHF receive is a pretty common desire for 2 meter users. Even without extended receive on VHF, this rig looks incredibly promising. A "K3-ish rig in a K2 package" was on my wish list years ago and it looks like Elecraft is about to deliver just that.
