Hello Wayne,
Thank you for the information on the 2 metre
module for the KX3, I will be ordering one on Friday 16th. I would also
be interested in a 4 Metre module as that band is getting very popular
in region1. Just an idea Wayne, would it be possible to have it mounted
in a seperate enclosure, so as to avoid opening up the KX3 to change
bands. Just my thoughts and I realise it may not be possible for
technical reasons. May I wish you and all at Elecraft a sucessful time
at Dayton.

Hi all,
We'll be taking orders for the KX3-2M module, at Dayton and via the web,
starting next Friday, May 16th. (Please don't call Elecraft about this yet --
we won't be set up to take orders until then.)
Meanwhile, we're thinking about doing a 4-meter version. 4 meters is not
available in the U.S., yet, but it is available in many countries in ITU region
1 (Europe, Africa, Middle East, etc.). For details, see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-meter_band.
A KX3-4M would be identical to the 2-meter version, with about 3 watts output,
a very low noise figure, and all-mode operation. It would use the same PCB,
requiring only component changes. Unfortunately there isn't room for both 2-
and 4-meters on one module.
Any interest in a KX3-4M?
