All,

    Now that I have the K2 opened for another issue, what
is the recommended static protection method ?   500k 1/4w
resistor from the center conductor of the PL-259 to ground
?

  Gene,

I cannot make any recommendation, but the 500k 1/4 watt resistor would
seem a bit high to me.  I would go no higher than 100k (50k would be a
good choice IMHO) and would use a 1/2 watt resistor instead.

Do not use a choke inside the K2 - there used to be one at the SO-239
jack, but it can couple into the base K2 and cause problems.  It was
removed with the latest KPA100 upgrade.

73,

In Multy Single club station we use cathode followers. They protect front
end from overload and static 100%

I use a 50K 1/2W in a male BNC with a BNC T-adapter on the radio ...
resistor plugs into one arm, antenna into the other.  I have the KPA100
and KAT100, but since I got the K3, I've kept the QRP top on my K2 and
use it for field contests, summit activations, and the like.  One note:  
I find some way to "earth" the ground screw on the K2 ... sometimes not
all that easy in field sites.  With the chassis grounded, or at least
partially so, precip static decreases and the KNB2 does a good job of
taking it out.  I think there is some reason why you don't want an RF
choke inside the K2, but it escapes me at the moment.
