Hi JOhn,
I used an XV50 with the optional crystal oven feeding my K2 and
successfully copied 6M EME JT65. The oven might be all you need for 2M.

EME applications.
Since my aim is towards JT65, is there anyone on the Reflector who's done
it and found need to do a modification to the local oscillator in the XV-144 to
enhance the
frequency stability? The K3 has the TXCO option. The 10 MHz reference using a
GPS
reference seems necessary but I hope a GPS discipline is kill.
The output linearity on transmit should be ok but I'll be needing to
have an IPA plus PA chain without IMD growth as well and I'd like to
know how the EME boys are dealing with this side of their configurations.
Thanks, John, W1QS
