Although Elecraft personnel has been very helpful in trying to fix our
problem with 2 meter reception in our local repeaters, no solution has
been found. Until a solution is found, no one should purchase a K3 with
this option. Otherwise the K3 has been great up to now.
NG5E wonders if Larry and I are new to using a VFO on the 2-meter band, but
that is not the case, and tuning does not seem to be the issue.
The Elecraft support staff (both Dale and Howard) have been quite attentive

Hi Julie,
As a repeater coordinator of 40+ years experience, I would say that
it's -highly- unlikely that the deviation of any your local repeaters are
exceeding +/- 5kHZ. This has been the commercial and amateur
standard for decades.
Trivia: Florida's first repeater (Tampa) was built in my sho
IIRC, when I installed mine I had to touch up the offsets a bit to get good
audio. Now it sounds good transmit and receive. Got the counter out and
touched up the HF freq, then did the 2 meter. Keyed up into dummy load and
dialed in the frequency that was on the display by changing the offset.
