If it had both 2m and 440, it WOULD be an 817D killer. The satellite crowd
also really likes the 817D because it gets you a basic QRP radio and a
portable satellite station to work both the FM and SSB birds.
Remember, Icom had a HF only QRP rig - the 703. It was a flop. The KX3
won't suffer the same fate because it's so much more, but it would
absolutely crush the competition (Yaesu FT-817D) if both 2m and 440 were
incorporated.
