Thanks to everyone who expressed interest in the KAT100-2 (With EC2
enclosure). I was kind of taken by surprise. Two years ago I decided to
leave my K2 as is with the amplifier installed. The KX2 kind of made a
QRP only K2 obsolete. So I bought another KAT100 because I thought the
K2 and accessories might be discontinued. I'm glad I was wrong. The
KAT100-2 kind of got forgotten about.
Building a K2 is an experience I highly recommend to anyone. But, most
especially to anyone just getting their feet feet in ham radio. There's
no better feeling in this hobby than making contacts with a K2 that you
built yourself.
Personally I wish there was a K2 Mark 2. But, I also wish there was a
K4! Maybe someday!
Over the years I have built pretty much every kit with the big "E" name
on it multiple times. 5 K2, 3 K1, 3 KX1, etc. The one big confidence
builder when tackling complex kits is Elecraft's support and most
especially a guy named Don who has bailed me out several times when I
really goofed - like putting a transistor in backwards. So, really, even
if you really goof up bad, someone, such as Don, will get you through it.
