When I ordered the unit for the K2, I was expecting all the parts needed to install the amp. I was mistaken. The only documentation provided are legacy documents showing how to connect to the pins underneath the NB board using a 3 pin socket/pins, which is very clean, but the DXE kit did not not supply them (no big deal as I have these in my junk box).
The bigger (and for me, I fear) insurmountable task is for the input cable that was provided. It is a jumper cable with two mini-SMA connectors (I think) on it, but since the K2 doesn't have any such connector, one end must be cut off and a pig-tail created. I do not know what size coax cable is used, but it is FAR SMALLER than RG-174 which is about the smallest my aging hands can work with. The board is very neatly constructed with SMT components but no place I can see to tap off using RG-174 in place of the supplied cable. So....I would appreciate suggestions from anyone who has installed the DXE version in their K2 and how they connected the K2 to the input to the board.
