Dave (and a couple others commented similarly) This is probably why I
suggested two options 1. dumb so not 'integration' so the dial you will
have to do the math... and 2. then when the software catches up (a few
other things appear to be missing still like SSB DVR) perhaps can have a
display that says 472KHz etc rather than the IF.
Either way should hopefully not change the construction of the
transverter it does mean that I may need to be aware of the IF choices
that KX3 might use.
If a 10MHz or some other frequency for an LO is available great if not,
I am already building an LO for use anyway and I could make it
switchable IF Elecraft do provide it later. I have 472KHz available now
so cannot wait for 18 months for a software update from Elecraft, if it
were open source maybe I could add it?

It would make the maths even easier if one could set XVn IF to 10MHz (and

Last time I checked Wayne was working on the software to give the KX3 the
same xverter driving capabilities that the K3 already has

The transverters may be "dumb", but the KX3 and the K3 both have the
"smarts" to display the output frequency - anywhere between 0 and 24999
MHz. Just use the XVn RF menu to set the low end of the transverter
output band.
