Bernie, AF9US  beat me to it.  I thought K3U for updated or K3+.

It would only designate it has hdwr updates but not which ones 
specifically.  If selling, those should be listed by the seller and 
clarified whether self-installed or Elecraft-installed, which might 
matter to some buyers.

My K3 SN-4340 bought in 2010 is upgraded with two new synth and 
modified gen coverage bw filter for operation on 630m.  It has many 
options which I installed as a "kit".  Firmware is not updated to 
latest vers (yet).

So each radio is "customized" by the owner so a simple upgrade 
designation is kind of incomplete.

I call my KX3 the KX3-2M to specify it has the 2m transverter mod 
(which I installed as a kit).  But it has other options installed.

But K3U is simple and, if adopted by this group, probably will "stick"!
