[Elecraft] KX3-2M module?

[David GM4JJJ]

Hi Gil,

It is for WSJT EME digital modes (JT65b) that the short term frequency drift problems really matter for me. No problem for SSB/CW regular work I imagine, after the extended temperature calibration of the VFO in KX3.

Hello,  

Why would a little instability be a problem on CW or SSB?  
I mean, you could be off 200Hz in CW and that wouldn't be too much of a  
problem. I used to own a K1 and it was all over the place until it  
warmed up, never prevented me from making contact and rag-chewing..  
Same for SSB.. You just need to turn the knob a little until the  
temperature stabilizes. It's a DDS VFO, still much better than a regular  
one. For some digital modes, I understand, but otherwise, who cares...?  

Gil.
