Howdy Fellow Elecrafters:

OK...it's so obvious even I figured it out.

Notice that we have a KX1 and a KX3??

What happened to the KX2??  Well, read on.

I predict the next new transceiver from Elecraft will render obsolete the K1-4 and KX1 obsolete...it will be called, obviously,  the KX2.

It will be a CW only all band 160M-6M DDS VFO controlled Direct Conversion SDR ala the KX3 but much smaller.

Perfect for field use it will become the new rage of the SOTA and IOTA crowd as well as the QRP community in general that likes to take their rigs out for portable OPS.

OK Wayne....sorry I let the cat out of the bag but at times I am just so darn prescient it surprises me.

So, when can we expect the new KX2 to be available for order??

OK...OK...All of the above said with tongue firmly placed inside of cheek.....but it is just too nice to think about.

I really wonder why the KX2 nomenclature has been skipped???

Am I on to something???  (large grin).
