[Elecraft] K144xv for K3 and noise figure

[Jeff Kinzli N6GQ]

Hi,

I was considering a K144XV for my K3, and noticing the noise figure
listed as "<2db", while the earlier transverters list NF at 0.8db. I'm
wondering how the two compare.

I also wonder if maybe in the future there might be a low-NF xvtr for
the K3? I like the integration idea, but I'm wondering how much of an
issue the seemingly higher NF would be for weak-signal work.

Thanks,

jeff
