Hello Friends,I use a home-brew BCD decoder with my K3S/P3 to switch to my 2m, 
222 Mhz and 432Mhz transverters via a hacked matrix relay..  My transverters 
are older DEMI models. disciplined by Q5 digi-lo boards..  The 222 Mhz 
transverter is connected to a Teltec brick PA.  The K3S and the 3 transverters 
receive a 10 Mhz reference via a Packrat GPSDO kit.73,Michael KB1JEY Sent from

222 I asked Elecraft about a 3 band transverter… 144 222 432… not exactly did I 
get a resounding yes…I guess they are focussed on HF for now the the K4.I have 
the K3 with internal transverter which is really convenient and it has “daisy 
chaing “ capabilities that were neverImplimented .. for additional transverters 
internally.They did have to their credit external transverters for 144 222 
432.For most VHF ers the transverter is the road to the bands and the Q5 5 Band 
transverter paired with my K4 is the ultimate spinach.So if IKY don’t get it, 
then buy DOMESTIC ….. Who knows maybe the Chinese will do it… I can get a 3 
band BOEFENG for cheap so why not and SSB mobile rig ?….hiKeep pushing these 
guys… its been a 40 year slog… don’t stop…..73 Dana
