4m-Transverter for K3?

Martin
Maybe this was discussed before, sorry when i missed it:

Will there be a 4m-Transverter -external or internal -for the K3 ?

In EU there are only a very small number of manufacturers. The Kuhne
transverters, although top notch, are out of range for many.

There is one from Hungary, but still more expensive than the XV-line.

No, Martin, there is not an internal 4m transverter for the K3. I
modified the external Elecraft XV50 for 4 metres and it works very well.
If you can obtain an XV50 with the later power output module, it can be
modified.  Here are my details: http://www.g4dmp.co.uk/XV70mods.pdf

Martin,

Have a look at the Nacton soon to be renamed Anglian transverter
http://g4ddk.com/4m%20web%20doc.pdf or the one from
http://www.qrp-shop.biz/EA7HGXV70K3

There are a number of others such as http://rudius.net/oz2m/70mhz/ but
at the end of the day the Kuhne module is probably the best one.

There has been mention of converting an XV50 transverter to 70 MHz in
the past on this reflector.
I do not believe it is a difficult mod.
You may want to do a search of the reflector archives.

Hi Martin,

EA7HG offers a K3 internal transverter: http://www.transverters.net/84298715

For external ones there are several choices. Besides Kuhne the HA1YA
transverters are top-notch (performance like Kuhne but just 1/3 of the
price). EA7HG has an external one, too. If you want to build your own
(or buy a kit) google for OZ2M, SP2DMB, DF2FQ, G4DDK, etc.

Another source of 4m transverters is Down East Microwave.

I build their kits on order and recently sent a L70-28 25w
transverter to Europe.
http://www.kl7uw.com/kits.htm
yes- you can go to my website safely, now - but only partially restored


Currently, I am building a DEMI 902-144 10w transverter for a ham in NY.
DEMI is now back in stock of kits for 50-432 MHz.
