Lou, Download the K2 A to B instructions and inspect your K2 to see which mods have been installed. Physical inspection is the only way I know to do it. 73, Don W3FPR On 5/10/2021 8:21 AM, Louandzip via Elecraft wrote: One thing that's holding me up is doing the research to figure out whic

I trust you installed the KPA100UPKT - the KPA100MDKT is not necessary because all the changes for that mod are included in the KPA100UPKT. I am still able to answer questions, but I can no longer physically do the work.  Getting old 'sucks', and I am getting up in years. I try to help Dave w
