So, Dave, how did you manage to get a K3EXTREF?  I would like to install
one in my new K3, but as far as I can tell, it is not yet being offered
for sale.

I have long had an interest in the precise measurement of time and
frequency, and have several 10 MHz reference oscillators.  (The only
time that I participated in the ARRL FMT, I was limited by ionospheric
doppler, making a better measurement on the West Coast station than from
W1AW on the east coast.)
