TRANSVERTER

Trans (transceiver)
Verter (Converter)

If you have a transeiver that doesn't cover a desired band such as 2 meters, 
you can use a transverter to convert it so it does.

Like a K3....It will not cover 2 meters so we use a transverter. This little 
box will convert all the 2 meter signals to  a band that the K3 can cover 
for example 10 meters. Also, this box can convert 10 transmit from the K3 to 
2 meters.

So there you have it. A transverter allows you to use an HF rig on VHF.
