Phil, Don and all. I can corroborate the 40 hour "standard". I built my K2/100 in 4 weeks working most weeknights after work for a couple of hours. My radio has all the options you can have except for the KAF2 (I've got the DSP2) and the KNB2. I also built an NGen and XG2 and KAT100-1 with the kit. I wound my own toroids too. I really don't see what the big deal is with winding toroids.
The only problem I had with the whole process was caused by my irrational exuberance at firing the rig up the first time and having it work perfectly. I failed to re-tighten the screws on the finals in the KPA100 and smoked 'em. Pilot error the whole way and another shining example of why "RTFM" applies all the time. 73, -- R.
