[Elecraft] Vedr: Why settle for KX3-2M? Why not KX3-2M/70cm?

[Martin Storli - LA8OKA]

Wayne, I'm sure that you can pull it out!
 
I'm going to order the 2 m module when it becomes available, but if it will be possible to replace the 2 m module with a 2 m/70 cm module later on, I will be the first in line to do so. 2 m/ 70 cm will add the capability to work satellites with the KX3 and of course add a new band.

Hi Martin,

A 2-m module is difficult enough given how little space is available. We'd like to do other VHF/UHF bands, but I'm not sure if it's possible. It would be fun to try.
