Hello Mike and Kjeld, IC275, IC475 and IC1275 were Icom's sought after monoband all mode rigs. The first two can still be found in the used market but the 3rd one will be very different to be found.
IC275 can still be easily found in Japan but you have to do modification to ROM IC so as to release the band limit. 73 Johnny VR2XMC ----- 郵件原件 ---- 寄件人﹕ Kjeld Holm <[email protected]> 收件人﹕ Michael M.

Dear Mike, Not exactly an answer to your question but in my oppimion you should consider an old Icom IC-275E or IC-275H (25 or 100 W) before making your decission.

Raskin Sent: 31. januar 2010 03:35 To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] 2M with K3 - anyone doing it? I recently picked up a used THL 500V 2M amp. I want to drive it with my K3, which has no 2M capability. The K144KV-F internal 2M module only has 10 Watts output, which is not enough to drive the THP 500V to 500 Watts. The KV144 2M transverter has enough power to do it, but it has to be external and is a kit, something difficult with my increasing age. Since Elecraft does not plan to have an internal 2M module with more than 10 Watts, would I be better off with the external transverter since I want to do 2M terrestrial as well as EME? Or should I give up on the K3 for 2M EME and wait for the new ICOM to be released?
