FWIW, my wife has developed an algorithm for calculating the value of radio kit-building. I told her yesterday that I had just ordered the K2/100. She asked ³How much?² I confessed that with all the accessories and add-ons and the shipping, it was about $1,700. Then she asked, ³How long will it take you to build it?" I told her that the reviews I read said about 30-40 hours, so for me it would likely be about 80. She then reflected on the fact that our 8-year old grandson builds twenty dollar Leggo kits in about two hours; thirty dollar kits in about three; and so on more or less linearly. So, she said, ³It costs about $10 an hour to amuse him. For you it¹s about $21."
Impeccable logic.
