Subject: Re: [Elecraft] On VHF & UHF radios

I added the 2 meter option for the KX3
and I was impressed with the ability to handle
out of band pagers etc. I live next to a hospital and there , usually
dirty
pagers etx cause problems with other 144 gear I have but the KX3 combo
really handles the strong 149/150 Mhz signals ,,, could use external amp
for ssb but there pretty common and EZ to home brew
