Hi Bruce, I was fortunate enough to be one of the KX-1 Beta testers. So I am well aware of the DDS clock limitations, and of the two LPF's in the KX-1 with "knee's". just allowing 20M operation.
But my "nudge, nuidge, wink, wink" was directed - with my tongue firmly in my cheek- at the possibility (no matter how remote) of Elecraft, after the K3 hiatus has settled down, considering a companion to the KX-1. Perhaps a KX-2(?) with a similar form factor, power and options, covering 20,17, 15 and 10 meters or better still 17,15,10 and 6 Meters.. 8 bands with two rigs... one in each pocket, with most of our home-brew accessories capable of being used with both... WIth the upswing in the Sunspot cycle the next decase will be fantastic for QRP operation.. Anyway.... I can dream, can't I???
