Curt,
If you only want to add the KSB2 and the KAT2, then just order the
Rework eliminator parts for the KSB2 (the KAT2 does not need any).
There is no need to install all the Rework Eliminator headers and
components - install only what you will use later.
Actually, the hardest part of the KSB2 installation is adding the
components on the front panel board. If you add those at the time you
construct the front panel board, it will save you work later. The parts
are included with the KSB2 option, so you have a choice of buying the
KSB2 option with your initial K2 or ordering the Rework Eliminator parts
for the KSB2 - your choice.
If you decide to order the KSB2 later, disassembling the Front Panel
board from the actual front panel is not difficult - just remove the
knobs and remove the encoder nut and remove one screw. It is more of an
emotional 'thing' than a real problem.

someday. Most likely will not implement any other options, mostly
operate QRP CW. I'd appreciate comments about whether the re-work
eliminator kits would be appropriate, or just an unnecessary expense.
