A fully loaded K2/100 with K2DSP and the external tuner is $1662 in kit form. And not forgetting that the K2 does NOT have a built in expandable PC with a USB I/O port...flash upgradeable. As for being semi-built... we have a fair number of gentlemen who will, and do, build K2's for users.. I would think the Sienna is aimed at a different market than the traditional Elecraft'er.. possibly the digitally inclined Ham ??
