Wayne, Eric, I'm referring to some concerns described by inputs to the Elecraft Reflector, about not only the stability but also L.O. calibration of the 2 M xvrtr, K144XV and probably the XV144. I wonder if in the near future you might consider phase locking their L.O.s to a 10 MHz OCXO. I understand that there are some Beta units in the field that are locking the K3's TCXO to 10 MHz (when can I get one?). It would also be great if you could do the same for your 2M xvrtrs, so that they could be synched to the same stable source.
Many of us VHF/UHF/Microwave weak signal and EME experimenters/operators, are now phase locking (via a 10 MHz source) our xvrtrs to those upper bands, most of which use a 2 M IF. At present I don't believe that there are any other manufactures or vendors doing this yet, for 2 M xvrtrs. It would really be a boon to have a self contained, ultra stable and accurate, 2M IF system the quality of a K3.
