I love my K2 with all of its features, including the internal
battery. It
would be real handy to plug the radio into one module and have the
KPA100 with
the KAT100-2 available in the shack, while keeping the battery
powered K2 for
portable work. I am a little shy about applying someone else's
modifications
to my rig.
If Elecraft is not planning on offering these kits in this form, is
there
someone's modifications that you would recommend?
I suggest you take a look at KK7P's excellent web page about doing
just what you described: <http://www.kk7p.com/k2kpa100.html>. The
only modification required to the K2 is to replace a choke with one
having a higher current capability (if one has an early KPA100, there
is a resistor mod, as well).
