[Elecraft] 2m module for the KX3?

[Phil Hystad]

Sean,

The time for the calls sign to show up in the FCC ULS database depends mostly on the speed of the VE/VEC giving the test and processing the paper work.  A friend of mine had his call in the ULS database about 3 days after his test.   I think that is the fastest I ever heard of.  The slowest could be almost anything.

I too am waiting for the KX3 2-meter option but haven't heard anything lately.  Now that the 100-watt amp for the KX3 is moving out the door at a regular pace, I think the focus is on the 2-meter option.  I am guessing late summer.  If you want to get on the repeaters, go out and buy yourself a cheap 2-meter FM rig -- probably can find one for under $100 easily.
