[Elecraft] K3 on 2 meters

OK, I am curious…

Why was not this reference clock board not built into the 2-m option board in the first place.  Overall I can’t imagine that the net cost would be as much as designing and separating out an optional PCB and all that goes along with that as the combined cost of the 2-m option and reference clock now.

After all, it was recommended for SSB and CW use.  Now, I suppose that there are possibly people in this world that would buy the 2-m option only for FM comms but given that a nice separate 2-m FM rig would be cheaper it doesn’t make sense to me to add something like that to the K3/K3S.
