At the Elecraft presentation that Eric did at Pacificon last year, I
threw out this exact idea for his consideration.
Given that Elecraft already has the technology to produce tranverters
for the K2 and K3 for 2m, 222 MHz and 432 MHz, I suggested a single box
to contain all three bands, all modes, and with a minimum of 50 watts
output.
Eric was receptive to the concept, but said he didn't think that there
would be a large enough market for such a transceiver. He's also the
business guy with Elecraft, so I have to believe what he said.
Submitting the idea to the list a while back, the general consensus
seemed to agree, adding that the VHF/UHF weak-signal operator pool is
shrinking.
The discussion is in the archives.

An all-mode VHF/UHF, 30 to 50 watt radio in a KX3 - sized box? (;-)

If you're going to go multi-band VHF/UHF, including 220 MHz would be very
nice.
