Wayne, First of all I heard you say the KX3 will receive down to 310-KHz but nothing about transmitting. Can it transmit below 500-KHz like the K3? As far as sensitivity drop with freq. I assume an external preamp could compensate for this.
I would be thrilled if the KX3 could do 1mw output on 461-510 KHz as it could replace my K3 for 600m operations. I did build a 10.461-0.461 MHz transmit converter (LO=10-MHz) working at mw levels (my 100w NDB xmtr needs only 1mw drive), but having a fully functional transceiver would be more useful. A question about RF output if the 2m transverter being designed for the KX3. I have heard power levels of 2-3w mentioned and also 10w. Is there more definitive info on this topic? 2w will drive a couple of my linear 2m amps to 30-45w. 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 ====================================== BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 50-1.1kw?, 144-1.4kw, 432-QRT, 1296-?, 3400-?
