Rolf, An interesting post. You probally have enough paint for several lifetimes. KK7P on his website discusses how to interface without a KIO2, however he did implement the KIO2 solution to his station. It does simplify the process. Given that by the time you reach this point in the build process the cost of a KIO2 is fairly insignificant in the total cost of the station. And I agree it does offer increased flexibity of the radio. Well worth the minor investment. QRP or QRO my K2 is good to go! (Could this become an Elecraft jingle?) Also, the "Elecraft Guys" if you are making reference to the Elecraft corporation do not, nor have they ever, offered support for remoting the KPA100. That is a user modification/enhancement. Many users, including myself, have found it fairly intuitive to combine the KAT100 with a KPA100 even if it is an unsupported configuration. Regards, Joe N9JR
- The philosophy why the elecraft guys probably won't recommend this is just that if you have an extra KIO inside your K2 you can use it independent from your external KPA/KAT. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
