Great Ric!, I've done that three times now ... all became active hams once they had a rig good enuf to make!Q's.  I'm not quite ready to part with my K2 [#4398], but when I do, that's how it will go. 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe County Rick Tavan wrote on 6/5/2022 5:23 PM:

I had an early K2, reviewed it for NCJ, loved it for a long time, then got an early K3. Instead of trying to sell an old, low-value K2, I gave it to a friend who gave it to a beginner he was mentoring. I felt that was a good home for it and a good use for a radio I no longer needed. Consider this,

Tim mentioned “A local here has a loaded K2/100 that he's been trying to sell for a while but has only received what he perceives as low offers” Bear in mind the K2 has been around for over 20 years, and was built from a kit by hams with variable degrees of soldering skills and had quite a few

Actually, the serial number of the K2 in question is actually 1049. DE KM1B On Tue, May 31, 2022 at 8:44 PM Joe Subich, W4TV wrote: > > Don, > > You are conflating two different rigs. 01949 is the QRP rig mentioned > by W6YCA who has no idea of what is installed, etc. Tim does not know >

Don, You are conflating two different rigs. 01949 is the QRP rig mentioned by W6YCA who has no idea of what is installed, etc. Tim does not know the serial number of the K2/100 with SSB, DXP and KAT100 owned by his friend (that has only receive "lowball" offers). It is the K2/100 that you

Tim, Most importantly, ask him if I upgraded it with the A to B upgrades. SN 01949 is pretty old. If can give me his name and callsign, I can search through my records 73, Don W3FPR On 5/31/2022 6:08 PM, Tim Tucker wrote: Thanks Don. He says that you're the one that built it for him and has

Thanks Don. He says that you're the one that built it for him and has been back to you a couple of times (for what, I'm not sure). I'll ask him for the serial number; it's the K2/100 with DSP and SSB, as well as the KAT100 to go with it. Tim On Tue, May 31, 2022 at 2:46 PM Don Wilhelm wrote:

Tim, There are several variations of a K2, so the fair price depends on the state of the upgrades (as well as the options installed).  If it is above SN3000 and if the KPA100 has been upgraded, it should bring a fair price. He should state which upgrades and options have been installed. If

Once you figure it out and if you do sell, please let us know what you get for it. A local here has a loaded K2/100 that he's been trying to sell for a while but has only received what he perceives as low offers. I'm interested to find out where the market for these is at. Tim AE6LX On Tue, May

Considering selling but need to figure out what is installed, as I haven’t used the rig much after purchase. Elecraft is missing a block of records. They suggest opening up & taking pics. Any others thoughts appreciated. It’s the QRP version with a tuner. Thanks. Paul WA6YCA
