>what is the logical next step, auto-tuner or SSB board? Both the auto-tuner and the SSB board make the K2 much more capable, and I think you should do both -- in whatever order you want, over whatever time period you want. Give yourself Christmas or Birthday presents over the next couple of years.
But: before you button up the basic K2, put in the connector for the auto-tuner. It's trivial before the heat sink is installed, while removing the heat sink and re-installing it is an unpleasant job. Most unpleasant jobs are good for you -- they improve character -- but not this one. If you don't buy the KAT2 along with the basic kit, at least ask for the connector and install it, just in case.
