Hi George,

I suppose you mean specifically an Elecraft transverter.  I've used the
Down East Microwave transverters in the past and they worked great.  
Were also lots of fun to assemble.  Taught me that SMD are not so bad
(the density was quite low).  You can find them at
www.downeastmicrowave.com.  Standard disclaimers apply, such as I have
no affiliation with DEM.  I'm just offering an alternative.  A higher
priced (and I believe non-kit) version from SSB Electronics for a fine
German manufactured transverter may also be of interest, but be prepared
for the price!

BTW, I think DEM plugs Elecraft as well and offers tips on interfacing
Elecraft with their transverters.  I first heard about Elecraft while
going throught he DEM website.  I thought "who the heck is Elecraft,
never heard of them" but eventually I figured it out!

Be carefull with the DEM EKT1 interface , is has no Vrfdet circuit.
K2 does not work well without it , ofcourse no power regulation with
the K2 power potmeter , but also CW sounds bad .
Better to use the original K60XV.
