KAT100 and KPA100 into EC case.

VE3WDM

I have a built K2 with the KPA100 installed in it, I now want to remove it and place it into the EC enclosure along with my un-built  KAT-100.
My questions are....
1. What do I need to purchase to do this from Elecraft?
2. At a later date can I install the KAT2 tuner or does it have to be done now.  I want to use the K2 for portable op's but that won't be until a later date.
Thanks all for your time

Mike,

You need an EC2 enclosure and the KAT100PNL front and back panel kit
which converts the KAT100-1 to a -2.

Since you have the KPA100 you have the KIO2 built in.

Re: KAT100 and KPA100 into EC case.

Mike, the comment about already having the KIO2 below is not correct.  
You currently have the KIO2 functionality in the KPA100, but you will
lose that function from the KPA100 when it is mounted remotely.

You will need the KIO2 or a suitable substitute in the base K2 top cover
- the substitute will not give you computer connectivity, but will allow
you to connect to the KPA100/KAT100.

I strongly recommend you order the KAT100-1 to KAT100-2 conversion kit.  
It has the headers for the KPA100 connections as well as the full height
front and rear panels for the KAT100.  You will also need to order the
EC2 enclosure.

You already have the parts to assemble the connecting cable - build it
just like the cable shown in the KAT100 manual.
