[Elecraft] 630m on K3/S

[Don Wilhelm]

Eric,

Are you kidding?  Yes, the K2 can receive 630 meters with a suitable 
transverter, but it would have to have an input/output frequency at 14 
MHz or above.

The K3 with the new synthesizers and the upgrades to the KBPF3 can tune 
down to that band, as can the K3S with the KBPF3 option.

You can use the transverter output with the K3/K3S in TX TEST mode to 
provide a 1mW signal to an amplifier for those low frequency bands, or 
you can use an external transverter.

I don't know of any plans to produce a low band transverter from Elecraft.
