Matt,
I have asked the same question to Eric at the HamRadio fair in Friedrichshafen. From what I understood, you don't need the mod because you can either operate on VHF or on HF. The mod makes sense if you have another VHF radio which you like to operate in parallel to the KX3.

Well, my KX3 is an early model that predates the point at which this mod was 
phased into production. I understand that the transverter module uses a 
separate SMA jack; my question is, while using the transverter, could there be 
leakage out the HF/6m antenna on the BNC jack that may be picked up by the 2m 
antenna on the SMA jack? Or is the BNC jack disconnected during transverter 
operation in a way that would prevent any such leakage?

This mod, which was phased into production long ago, only pertains to the HF-6 
meter antenna jack (BNC). It has no impact on the 2-meter module, which uses 
the SMA jack.

For early model KX3, there is a mod kit for the BNC connector which added extra 
filtering to reduce weak signal interference on VHF/UHF. Is this mod 
recommended if the 2m transverter is installed in the KX3? Will it cause 
interference to itself on 2m without the mod?
