Not that I know of Bob. After the initial KX1, they brought out the 30m
add-on which I have and the 30/80m add-on which I don't have [life at my
age isn't long enough for QRP with short antennas on 80m :-)]. Mine is
S/N 678 I think, it's buried in my SOTA bag and I don't have time to go
look, but I know it's 3-digits in the 6 hundreds.
Like the K1 and K2, these are fairly mature products, not many changes,
and they work. I do SOTA activations with my K2, and sometimes the KX1,
I usually work the Spartan Sprint with my KX1 when it's warm enough to
be on the deck. I think you will like the KX1, with the LiPoly battery,
the integral paddle, and earbuds, mine comes in at just under 0.62 lbs.
Important for the Spartan. :-)

Greetings all. I recently fell in love with QRP CW and have outgrown
my TenTec R4020. I'm an engineer and use a soldering iron a lot at
work, and I'm busy these days so a build project doesn't excite me.
right now. I have a lead on a 5 year old KX1 and was wondering if
they've changed much in 5 years. I'm fine with little mods and
tweaks but want to make sure it isn't dramatically different from the
new ones. Have they changed much in 5 years?
