Wayne,
this is very exciting news to me; with 80 being quite alive thanks to
winter, and active, thanks to poor propagation on higher bands, adding
80 comes at a great time; I look forward to the release of the module,
and will jump in line to buy it!
Keep up the good work!

We're pleased to announce that the KX1 is now a 4-band radio!
Many KX1 owners have asked for 80 meter coverage, notably Bruce Prior,
N7RR, who pointed out that 80 meters is a great band for traffic
handling at night (in both the CW and SSB segments). Up till now,
Bruce has been taking his KX1 and a second rig that covers 80 meters
on his extensive backpacking trips. Our new KXB3080 option will
lighten his load a bit. 80 meters is also a popular field day and QRP
band, and is especially active in the Eastern U.S. and in Europe. Band
noise is lower in Winter, so this is the perfect time to give 80
meters a try.
