There seems to be some confusion on this point. Once a KX3 has had the extended 
temperature compensation procedure applied, it will have drift of only about 
+/- 10 Hz in CW and SSB modes on 2 meters. This is not as good as an 
oven-controlled oscillator (which there isn't room for, of course), but it 
should be quite satisfactory for SSB and CW use.

If you use higher-band transverters after the KX3, using 2 meters as an I.F., 
any drift in external units will add/subtract to the total, not multiply the 
2-m drift upwards. (Unless you're using a frequency multiplier -- that's a 
different story.)
