Walter,
     I built a K2 for FD a number of years ago. It was a wonderful FD
rig. I was operating QRP CW with a group in my radio club. It fared very
well and outperformed the FT-817 and a few other portables. It got down
to operator skill when comparing the K1 and K2 FD operation.

     I no longer have my K2. I sold it to buy my KX3. I do miss my K2,
though.

73,
Barry
