Guys, come on - the real answer? Because they are less than half the
cost of an IC-7800 and outperform that radio also!
So if anyone who has two K2s is feeling guilty about it at this point,
then follow these directions:
Find a nice box, well padded.
Place the extra K2 and its accessories in the box, packing it carefully.
Ship it to me! Bet I won't feel guilty at all about having two...
Seriously, the reason I will eventually have two transceivers on my
desk is for SO2R contesting. I am told that there is a lot to be said
for having the audio of one radio working a band in your left ear, and
the second receiver's audio in your right ear. It's supposed to greatly
improve your contesting abilities, drive you nuts, or both!

okay I am a bit naive here but why would anyone need two k2s?
1) If you are into contesting, you'd need a second K2 to run SO2R
(Single Operator 2 Radios)
2) You need one for the shack, and one for the moble / RV / summer
home
3) You need a spare K2 so you can still operate radio while you are
putting the latest mods into your other K2.
4) You never USE the K2, you just build them....
