He was working on his general class license the last I heard, but if you

If his K2 does not have the analog filter, and he would like the DSP, it

I wanted to take a minute to thank a few hams that help me assist a wounded
warrior that just became a ham operator.
I would like to thank John KF7OM for being patient while a bunch of ham
