K2 K60XV IF Selection Option Question

Michael Mussler
I'm using my K2 with a recieve converter for the 600m band, currently interfaced via the receive antenna port. I recently installed the K60XV accessory to my K2 in preparation for use of the K2 as the IF on both transmit and receive on 600m. The problem: I discovered the firmware offers IF band selection down to 7 MHz. My converter uses a 3.5 MHz IF, a real advantage for image rejection with the RF input at 505 to 508 kHz. Can anyone on the reflector describe what may be involved with changing the selections available with the K60XV? Does it involve a firmware change or is there another work-around? If a firmware change is needed, how do I go about doing that? Any help or advice is much appreciated. I plan to use the K2 to operate digital modes under the 600m experimental license, WD2XSH/12.
