plan for the options now. ...

Hi John,

    In addition to elminating the need to do any desoldering or any
additional soldering, our assembly method also saves you from having
to do any significant disassembly of the enclosure that otherwise
required when adding some of the options.

    Beyond our assembly method and its associated header and duplicate
K2 parts kits, we now also have a neat internal mic adaptor for the K2
that can be easily configured to support more than 50 microphones.
(The alternative is rather significant disassembly of the K2 should
you wish to change the front panel mic connector pin out, and no easy
way to install a bias resistor.)

    You can find several reviews of our products on the eHam website
at http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/6372 (for our headers) and at
http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/6918 (for our mic adaptor).

    See our website at http://www/unpcbs.com/ for details and
especially check out our "Frequently Asked Questions" page.  Feel
free to email Ken Kaplan and myself at < support at unpcbs dot com >
if you have any questions.

73,
