Why are we adding the price of the FM filter to the K144XV?  There are 
SSB and CW modes on 2 meters.
One alternative is the external XV144 (or any other 2 meter 
transverter).  If that transverter were chosen, AND you wanted to change 
the crystal to cover the FM frequencies, the FM filter would still be 
required for the K3.
Since most 2 meter FM is repeater work, I don't think diversity mode is 
a benefit, so why even consider 2 FM filters.
