Season's greetings from the Left Coast. Hope everyone is having a great holiday!

Meanwhile--with apologies for the bandwidth:

K2 S/N 00001 is among the early Elecraft radios I've had in cold storage. 
Unboxing it brought back fond memories from 1999, the year we started shipping, 
back when Elecraft had approximately 2 employees. This unit saw a few very 
successful Field Days. It was also my workhorse during the evolution of the 
K2's firmware and option modules. It includes the KSB2 SSB option.

Last week I sent the radio off to our legacy product tune-up guru, Dave Van 
Wallaghen (W8FGU), who has now fully checked it out, tuned it up, installed 
most of the missing upgrades, and given it an on-air shake-down. Given its 
ancient pedigree, it features the first examples of some of the hardware mods. 
(Though I lack mil-spec soldering certification, I did put a lot of TLC into 
this rework.)

If you're looking for a K2 of a certain age, either for a collection or to put 
on the air, please contact me directly.

73,
