My understanding is that the KX3 (not the K3) _CAN_ tune the WX band for RX.

Hey, Joe --
From the Elecraft KX3 Module FAQ: *Q:What frequency range will the module cover?* A:On 2 meters: About 120 to 165 MHz, allowing copy of weather-band stations at 162 MHz, airport tower AM in the 120 MHz range, etc. On 4 meters: About 65-72 MHz. Sensitivity gradually falls off outside the associated ham bands.

The KX3 with KX3-2M is able to tune frequencies in the range 120-168
MHz. See p53 of the owner's manual for the specs. 73, matt W6NIA On Sat, 20 Sep 2014 20:45:45 -0400, you wrote: >My understanding is that the KX3 (not the K3) _CAN_ tune the WX band for RX. >Bruce/N1RX > >> The K3/KX3 can't tune those frequencies ... even with the >> 2 meter transverters.
