[Elecraft] 4M operation and 4M/2M modules

[Edward R Cole]

Wayne has already stated that the internal connection are not 
suitable for repeated disconnect/connect processing.
So that would say your idea is not a good one to consider.  if you 
wan the 4M module then install that but do not expect to be changing 
over to the 2M module anything like maybe once?

Looking at the small coax connectors I think they will deform fairly 
quickly from that.

I have a couple of questions for Elecraft and for our UK friends.

My wife and I make 3-4 trips per year to Scotland to visit family in the
Borders and a vacation home in Clackmannanshire.  So the new 4M module for
the KX3 is exciting *if* I'm able to operate MM/N7DH on that band.  Can
anyone tell me if the fact that we don't don't have 4M privileges in the
U.S. prohibit me from using the 70-MHz band in the U.K.?

Also...  I understand that the KX3 will accept only one of these at a time,
but will it be fairly easy to swap the 2M and 4M modules when I travel and
is it risky to other boards in the KX3 if I do this a few times a year?
