K2 needed for Hamcom QRP demo booth

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ]

Does anyone have a K2 that they can loan to Doc for the QRP demo booth at
Hamcom this weekend? My rig will be in use at the Elecraft booth.

Please reply to me and copy Doc, [hidden email] , if you can help out.

73, Eric

Hi Doc,

My K2 has the KBT2 internal battery and KAT2 tuner.  I have a set of
Palm paddles, not sure if that's the best for demo purposes.  I will
have a power supply also.

I will drive down Friday, should be in town mid afternoon.

73,
