Mike, I find this a very curious belief. Do you want a schematic to know
how the thing works, or how to repair it.
If you only want to know how the radio works, would a block diagram and
a fairly detailed explanation from Wayne be enough (given they want to
protect their design as much as possible)?
If you want to repair it, are you really skilled enough in soldering
SMD's to do this? If so, my hat's off to you, sir! I've spent a lifetime
working in the electronics industry and even in retirement I still enjoy
restoring vintage electronics. But if I was faced with servicing a PCB
full of SMD's, I'd say "Today my jurisdiction ends here"* and send it
off to Elecraft for repair.
Just my $0.02, but you seem to be missing out on a wonderful rig by a
questionable requirement. Put another way, do you also have a schematic
for your microwave oven and cellphone?

BUT...unlike the KX1, the KX2 has no schematics available to the customer.
That is a very significant defect in a HF amateur radio product.
