I have 162.425 programmed in my KX3-2M and works just fine!  The NOAA 
station is only 20 miles away and received at S7 with a base station 
vertical at 20-feet.

I was initially frustrated by the memory editor but found that I 
could direct enter the frequency following the steps in the KX3 
manual on page 17 - Frequency Memories, after direct entering the 
frequency per page 10.  More involved than using the memory editor 
but it works!

I do not find the sensitivity roll-off noticeable at 162 MHz.

The K3 cannot tune that high if using 28-MHz as IF.  I find Tx level 
unusable above 146-MHz (30-MHz) as output drops off quickly above 
this though the Rx receives well to 32-MHz.  My 50w transverter is 
only driven to 7w on 146.52 by my K3 (30.52 MHz).

The K3/KX3 can't tune those frequencies ... even with the
2 meter transverters.  Those frequencies would be well above
30 MHz (IF limit).
