Re "Lyle did design the KSDP2 independently, and
then when he presented it to Elecraft, it became a
product - *and* Lyle was subsequently hired by
Elecraft as their DSP designer.": An impressive
job interview, that :-)
And the KDSP2 remains a favorite of mine; I
replaced the KAF2 with it as soon as it was
available,it really makes a difference in my K2!
Given the design constraints of adding it to the
K2 after the design was more-or-less complete,
it's menu system is not the most user friendly.
But using the K2 with KDSP2 alongside my K3, KX3
and KX2 the K2 still holds its own.

Wes,
You will have to find an example beyond the
KDSP2 to support that assertion.
Yes, Lyle did design the KSDP2 independently,
and then when he presented it to Elecraft, it
became a product - *and* Lyle was subsequently
hired by Elecraft as their DSP designer.
All other products were designed by engineers
working either full time or part time for
Elecraft. The fact that they are not all
working at a desk in Watsonville is not
important. The Elecraft staff is distributed
throughout the country, and I represent the
Elecraft legacy line for repairs, and I am
located in Wake Forest, NC. Email and other
forms of communication keep us working together
- for me the only handicap is the time
difference, Watsonville does not "wake up" until
11AM my time.

Apparently you don't know Elecraft's
engineering process. Many "Elecraft" products
were "designed by someone else", starting with
the DSP in the K2. Here's what Wayne had to
say about that:
