An interesting discussion, but I notice no one has abandoned a Ten- Tec Omni II for a K2.

If you want to send me one, I'll let you know....

Do you folks think that the Omni II is worth the great difference in price based on performance?

The Omni II is a tremendous rig. It offers the performance of rigs that are literally three times the price. It set the standard to which these mega-rigs aspire to.

Certainly factors like unit size and bulk, pride of building, and the fact hat the K2 is not software based are important, but is the Omni a functionally better rig?

An Omni II is only twice the price of a fully decked out K2/100. For that price you have two functional receivers, 100% duty cycle transmit, and a bunch of other features.

I'd say it's worth the price, if you can afford it. As for Price / Performance, the K2/100 wins, hands down.
