I have 162.425 programmed in my KX3-2M and works just fine! The NOAA
station is only 20 miles away and received at S7 with a base station
vertical at 20-feet.
I was initially frustrated by the memory editor but found that I
could direct enter the frequency following the steps in the KX3
manual on page 17 - Frequency Memories, after direct entering the
frequency per page 10. More involved than using the memory editor
but it works!
I do not find the sensitivity roll-off noticeable at 162 MHz.

The K3 cannot tune that high if using 28-MHz as IF. I find Tx level
unusable above 146-MHz (30-MHz) as output drops off quickly above
this though the Rx receives well to 32-MHz. My 50w transverter is
only driven to 7w on 146.52 by my K3 (30.52 MHz).

The K3/KX3 can't tune those frequencies ... even with the
2 meter transverters. Those frequencies would be well above
30 MHz (IF limit).
