[Elecraft] re: K2 Carrying Handle ...

[Weymouth Walker]

Many thanks to all who responded to my question
regarding where to find a "handle" to mount on the
side of my K2 ...

Most replies pointed towards the handle found on
the side of current Icom/Kenwood/Yaesu radios ...

One of the NEWEST K2 GALLERY pictures (just=20
above the K2 in McMurdo Station, Antarctica pix)
shows a K2 with just such a handle ...=20

That K2 belongs to Randy, WJ4P ... he was kind=20
enough to supply the Kenwood Part Number ...

Here's his reply to me:

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Its a Kenwood handle part number KO1-0420-05
BTW, the Kenwood TS-57 (TS-570?) outer rubber
ring on the main tuning dial knob fits perfectly on
the stock K2 knob.  I have gone back to the stock
knob now since putting it on there.

72,

=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

So ... for all of you who wanted to know what the replies=20
were, this is the handle that I'm going to order ...

BTW ... Other replies warned that placement of any=20
handle gets critical if you have installed (or plan to=20
install) the KPA-100 !!!
