I have a K2/100 serial number 5020 loaded with most all options and many
"extras". It looks as new and works well with a couple exceptions from my viewpoint which I describe below. I recently bought it from the original builder and he did a wonderful job building it. I am selling it because I want to try something else. Here is what it consists of: K2 KPA100 (100 W module) KSB2 (SSB Module) K160RX (160M option) K60XV (60M and transverter interface) KNB2 (Noise Blanker) FDIMP (Finger Dimple) KDSP2 (Internal DSP and Clock option) KAT100-1 (external 100W tuner) MD2 (Desk Mic w/stand, very nice matching Elecraft Desk Mic) Foot switch (plugs into mic cable) Rework Eliminators ( set of 6 plug in boards) Original K2 top cover with speaker N-Gen Noise Generator XG-1 Signal Generator DL-1 Dummy Load RF Probe (from the K2 kit) Power cable for 100W operation Power cable for QRP operation Serial cable for KAT-100, (and other options/rig control) All Manuals The radio works super with the following exceptions. 1. According to my power meter the output ranges from approximately 80 watts on 10 meters to 100 watts on 160 meters. Seems like it should be more on the higher bands 2. When I key to radio with either "tune" or "tune + display" it takes a few seconds for the ALC to stabilize the output. YThis may or may not be a problem. 3. On SSB (40 and 80 meters only) with the RF/ALC meter in the RF position, the output is much higher than it should be for example up to 150W or more on 80 meters. Seems like the ALC is not kicking in. With the RF/ALC meter in the ALC position the SSB operation is normal on all bands. A check of the Elecraft reflector archives turns up the issue of high power on these bands so it is a known problem. None of this really affects the operation of the radio and during normal operation they are not noticeable but I wanted to mention them so there were no surprises. I will ship and insure the complete package US Priority Mail in the conus for $1400. Would consider a trade involving a mint Ten Tec Omni VI + with filters. Please email for more info if needed..
