Hello John, If you don't need an integrated linear with the K2 in one enclosure, I would suggest you go for KXPA100.
This linear is not only fitted to the KX3 but also any other radios like K2. It can be fitted with internal ATU KXAT3 if you wish. On the other hand, if you don't need 100W power, you could consider the Hardrock HR50 (50w output with internal ATU as well) at a much lower price. In fact, there are quite a few good choices. 73 Johnny VR2XMC ________________________________ 寄件人︰ John Fritze <[email protected]> 收件人︰ [email protected] 傳送日期︰ 2014年09月9日 (週二) 2:01 AM 主題︰ [Elecraft] K2/10 to K2/100 One of our K2s needs to be converted to a K2/100. Looking over the instructions I do not see where this is terribly difficult, but I do have a couple of questions: Both K2s are totally maxed out with all the options so there is no reason to use one over the other. If I add the KPA100 kit, will the 20 watt tuner still be inside or does that need to be removed? Will it still be available to use if running less than 20 watts? When I remove the battery, anyone have any idea how often I should put it on the charger to maintain the pack? Should the pack be unplugged for storage? This is a SOTA rig for my XYL and I think she will have an easier time with 100 watts and a Buddipole LIPO pack. She is having a difficult time making contacts QRP. -- John Fritze Jr K2QY [email protected] ACACES president 2014 Albany County RACES Radio Officer ARES ENY DEC Northern District Hudson Div. Asst.
