Hi all, We'll be showing a major new product -- a KX3 external accessory -- at the Visalia DX Convention. You can test-drive one at our booth. (By the way, I'm not referring to the 2-meter module. But that option will also be the subject of an announcement in the next week or two.) 73, Wayne,

I've worked on some space vehicles with RTGs. A couple have left the solar system, a good place for them. I'd not want one in my ham shack ;-) Phil W7OX On 4/3/14, 11:17 AM, Lynn W. Taylor, WB6UUT wrote: Major external accessory? Maybe something like this?

I sure hope it is an hardware only product.  Speaking quite candidly, I am tired of the countless software updates fixing bugs that should have been caught before the product is released.   George, W6GF On Thursday, April 3, 2014 4:27 PM, Jim Brown j...@audiosystemsgroup.com wrote: On

I like the updates, George. Beats waiting five years for today's version. With the K2 firmware updates were truly firm: Buy new chips (there are six or so in a fully optioned K2), disassemble the K2 and install them. Sorta a PITA compared to the K3/KX3/etc. approach. Phil W7OX On 4/3/14,
