K1 extinct?

Lane-2
Took a look at the new revamped website (or maybe I haven't been on it
for a while), and noticed there are no K1's listed. Is it true?

Yes, the K1 was sadly discontinued last year.

Re: K1 extinct?

Yes, sad indeed, but predictable when the parts transmute to unobtainium
in shorter and shorter periods. Rich, NU6T, and I traded radios while
activating Leviathan Peak a number of years ago ... he ran my K2 for
awhile, I played with his K1.  I enjoyed my KX1 for all the years I had
it, it even went through the Panama Canal, but given the choice between
a KX1 and a K1, had I known, I've have gone for the K1.  Just an
incredible little, light, and fun QRP radio.

Wow, I am really sad about that. After the K2 and a few K3's, I guess
I waited too long thinking parts for the 4 band version would
eventually be found. :(

Re: K1 extinct?

The K1 is as remarkable as the K2, for its small rugged box, it’s a power
house feature packed rig.

Gotta say its been in its case since I got the KX2. Remarkable rig.
