As the 2 metre band in most of the world is just 144 to 146 MHz, Wayne, this does seem to be an unnecessary complication for many of us. Does this facility increase the cost of the K144XV? If so, is there an alternative option for those of us with the 144-146 MHz band? Already having an XV144, I am trying to find a reason why I should order a K144XV for my K3. Can you help?
