John,
I'd consider getting the Rework Eliminators http://www.unpcbs.com/ .
When you're done with your K2, you'll be able to plug in future modules
without a lot of hacking. Great for troubleshooting too. If you have
different microphones you might want to use, consider also their
Internal Mic Adapter.
(Disclaimer: I use these parts when I build K2's for my clients. I'm
listed on their web site, but I don't get any financial benefits.)
Cheers,
Alan

Hello,
I am getting ready to start my K2 project (after this weekend's VHF
contest is done.) I have the base K2 kit + KAT2, + KSB2 for my initial
build. I am planning to add a couple more pieces in the future (KIO2,
K160RX, K60XV.) I know that some people have used some sort of
inexpensive kit to allow to for the future upgrade path.
Are there any opinions one way or the other on that? My main concern
being any parts that I might need to desolder in the future if I don't
plan for the options now.
After building my XV222 (for this weekend's contest) I am looking
forward to starting the K2 project. The dead of winter has arrived in
Minnesota so it is a good time of year to melt some solder.
