K2 - KAT2 QRP Tuner in EC2 - Elecraft K2 line ;-)

oe9fwv
I would like to add a EC-2 with the KAT2 built in.
My K2 has no room for the KAT2 this is why I need a separate housing. The  
KIO2 is built in.
The KAT2 is powered from the K2 KIO2, right? I'll have to connect the KIO2
and HF to the tuner, that's all?
I'll have to find out the correct pinout for the K2 BUS - hope the numbers
are like on the D-SUB connector.
I plan to connect the K2 RS232 with a D-Sub on the ECS and HF with a BNC
cable through a nice Daiwa SWR meter which fits perfectly into the EC2.

     your bill. However, if you don't, you will be."

The K2 top cover has enough room for a KAT2, KBT2 and KIO2 all at the same time.  Have you installed something else in that space?

I'm desperately trying to figure out why kamikaze pilots wore helmets.
