This is a thoughtful reply, and I appreciate it. The money differences are
not a worry. However, I was thinking of (but didn't include in my message)
the K2 100-watt amplifier in an enclosure since I don't want to build it on
board the K2. I was looking at $450 for the FL-45B and $480 for the
Elecraft amp and enclosure. I guess there could be some other parts I
would need? Very happy camper either way, but the FL-45B sits on its own
without need of an enclosure.
I think I picked up on an answer to the bandswitching question. Does the
FL-45B have band buttons on the front panel? I can't find an image big
enough to be sure.
Just some additional words sold by weight and not by volume. Tnx, Steve et
al.

Well you don't have to use 100W. I would think that the K2100w amp would be
the way to go and much cheaper as well. Looks like bandswitching is a
simple matter of pushing a button in lieu of auto switching.
