[Elecraft] KXV3 RXA board vs KXV3A

[Stan Rife]

The RXA mod had nothing to do with the transverters. It increased the isoation of the receive antenna on the KXV3 board.
 
Jeff, you need to get the KXV3A, and there is an upgrade purchase price that gives you a break and you have to send your old KXV3 back to Elecraft.

Jeff,

I am not certain what you are referring to as "a KXV3 with the KXV3 RXA 
board".  If you are referring to the RX Antenna, I believe that always 
has been a part of the KXV3.  If there was a different KXV3 RXA version, 
would someone please inform me.
Yes, the KXV3A is required to install the K144XV - the "A" version has 
the switching for the K144XV, and the "non-A" version does not.  I would 
say you need to order the KXV3_UPGR so you can be prepared when your 
K144XV arrives.

73,
