K2.100.ssb.at sn 6194

Jim Stoneback
Eric and WayneGreetings!

I am having a fantastic time operating with my newly completed
K2/KPA100/KAT100!

It's hard to believe anyone could ever top outstanding engineeing job you
guys did with the K2.  The integration of the KPA100 is a really amazing.
It's cool to be able to zoom from 5-watts up to 100 for a moment to shew
away QRMers.  I'm getting good audio reports on SSB, too.  BTW, I never
enjoyed operating SSB much, but with this rig, I find myself slipping up to
the fone section of the bands, tuning for CQ'ers.  The rig is a real joy to
use, both CW and SSB.   (The KAT100 ain't nothin to sneeze at either.)

I'm watching your progress with the K3 and reading the email postings,
brochures and manual with great interest.  It looks like you've outdone
yourselves!

vy 73,

Jim

There's something beautiful here.  Jim is really enjoying his rig yet
doesn't have all the options.  SSB and 100 watts with an antenna tuner.
No DSP, no Audio Filter, no 160 module, etc.

Yes, Virginia, the bare-bones K2 is a great rig.

Standing in the looming shadow of the K3, the K2 remains one absolutely
fantastic rig.  I can't think of a better rig have to "endure" while you
wait for you chance to own a K3!

73 all!

  My K2 has only the K160RX.
I don't consider it an option.

Everytime I look at the Elecraft site, I am impressed by the lineup.  
 From KX1 up through K3.  Great!  I am hooked and a new believer.  Now  
to start buying!

Beware, once you start buying it may be hard to stop as I am finding out.

You mean you DON'T have a K-rig?  Oh, man, that's terrible!

I've tried many rigs and the K2 is the only one that has satisfied me
for any length of time.  Every other rig I've owned began to irritate me
after a few months of usage.  The K2 just keeps me smiling.

And then the K3 was announced.  I still love my K2 but am scheming as to
how I can get a K3 and still stay happily married!  Curse you Elecraft!
