G'day,

Some of us have been asking for years for the individual K2 VFO's to 
remember the mode they were last used on.  On the "list" I believe. 
Despite all the bells and whistles, I've yet to find anything I can't hear 
on the K2 as well as I can on the K3.  It's taken me a while to make the 
K3 on RX sound just as nice.  The main thing that swung me towards to K3 
was the Sub-RX option.  One day we might see it.

Regards,

Mike VP8NO

| Darrell And All,
|
| No flame intended here, but just what do you expect to be done for the 
K2?
| Remember, the K2 is not expandable like the K3.  It did have some spare 
room
| in the firmware initially, but I think much, if not most, of it has been
| used up.  Furthermore, the K2 had many, many years of being pretty much
| center stage, so I think you can reasonably say the K2 is "mature", or 
at
| least nearly so within it's range of possibilities.  Sure, it can still 
be
| improved in bits and pieces here and there, but not as dramatically as 
can
| the K3.  I think many of the significant improvements that could be made 
to
| the K2 would require considerable reworking of the design, or at least 
the
| physical properties in the K2.  I may be dead wrong about this, but that 
is
| certainly what I was led to believe by the folks at Elecraft themselves 
when
| they first announced the K3.  In other words, Elecraft was breaking out 
from
| the limitations inherent in their own K2 design by initiating the K3. 
If
| you have a thirst for some substantial increase in performance in your 
K2, I
| think what you really need to a K3!
