fun comparing it to my TenTec Omni V. I could see me replacing both

I don't think one should consider the K2 as an upgrade to the K1. These two

Thanks Mike,
Due to cost limitations (I have too many hobbies, too few dollars) I
find I'm usually running a very lean ship. One rig is about all I can

If I find the K1 is to my liking (menu-driven, QSK operation, sound of
receiver, RX performance, etc) I'll consider going

Based on what you say, I'd suggest you get the K2. You don't have any of the
needs for which the K1 is the better rig, and the $'s ain't that much

K1 = 359 = $90/band.
K2 = 599 = $75/band.
K2+K160RX = 638 = $71/bandg.

operating feel. Small size, menu driven who knows what else. It will be
quite a shift from my big Omni V, right?
I used to have a Corsair II. Prior to that I had an Omni D. I now have
