My K2 & K3 wish list

John-483


A module that would install in place of the ATU. Something simple to
measure SWR/PWR and have multiple ( two or three) selectable antenna
outputs. I can understand those who need a tuner, however many of us
don't (resonant antennas). I have 2 K2's with ATU installed in each
and I very seldom use the tuner. I do like the CALP/CALS function,
but the main reason I bought them (ATU's) is for the dual antenna
outputs. I think it would shave a few bucks off the price, money that
could be used to purchase other options.

I would have thought the easiest way of selling this would be as an
underpopulated ATU board, possibly with firmware updated (removing
function from software is a relatively safe change) to disable the
unwanted functions.
