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...

Ah well then, that's a horse of a different color then isn't it? 8-)
My reply was based on the context of _adding_ 15M to the KX1. If you are
talking about a new radio based on the KX1 design, then please disregard my
reality check. We know return you to you previously scheduled dream, already
in progress...
