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.)

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.
