Good luck. I too started this afternoon on my K2 #3071. I got my license =
in
1983 but have been semi-QRT('ish) for years and hopefully this rig will =
get
me back onto the HF bands. I remember my excitement at my first rig:
Sommerkamp TS-788DX a 10m only ssb/cw 25w output rig. That was lots of =
fun.
I've never made anything before so it is with considerable trepidation =
that I
have started on my K2 kit. If it goes wrong it will be a very expensive
mistake but I am hopeful that everything will go well, if a bit slowly. =
So
far my soldering at least looks reasonably neat.
