- coverage of entire 2-m band (144-148 MHz, U.S.)

- diode-switched T/R (no relays)

- full integration with K3 (including power-out bar graph, status 
monitoring, etc.)

- future option module provides phase locking of crystal osc. to
   K3's internal reference; sub-receiver access to 2 m; 144-MHz 
low-level I/O

- simplified station wiring (RF, DC, control)

The K144XV increasing K3 band coverage to 160-2 m, which will be great 
for those with limited space or the need for 2 m for 
portable/mobile/marine operation. But it isn't for everyone, of course. 
Some 2-m ops will prefer the slightly better NF and higher power output 
of an external transverter.
