Many Thanks to everybody that responded, both via the Reflector and 
privately.

To summarise, it seems the most straightforward and economical way of 
achieving my requirement is to purchase the KXV3 transverter i/f,  (or 
optionally, but more expensive, the KAT3 ATU).
Altho' I have no need for either of these, the KXV3 does offer other 
funtionality that may be useful to me in the future.

Wayne has announced that he will be drafting a set of drawings shortly, 
illustrating the various Antenna port configurations. This will be a great 
help to us all.
There are still many other functionality queries revolving around in my head 
so really looking forward to publication of the K3 Manual and/or an in-depth 
Review in QST or other Ham Mag.

Thanks again Guys
73 Dave
