Aha!  That's the missing piece of the puzzle.  Now I understand.  Thanks.

I was mentioned in Eric's announcement yesterday - the antenna jack for
the K144XV is mounted on a replacement rear panel - if you have the
KPA3, you get a new fan panel. If not, you get a new "blank" panel.

I wonder if new KPA3's will be shipping with the new-style fan-panel
by default. I'm sure you could at least request the right panel if/when
you order the KPA3.
