[Elecraft] KAT100/KPA100/EC2

Fri Aug 15 08:19:01 2003

Dave, there is no reason to switch lids. These are two stand alone boxes. 
K2 QRP and EC2 containing KPA100 and KAT100. In fact I even have the K2 
with the KAT2 tuner inside. The AuxBus keeps everything in order. You need 
to have a KIO2 on the QRP K2. So to sum it up: you need two boxes: 1) the 
QRP K2 with KAT2 (if you wish) and KIO2 . . .and KBT2 (if you wish) and 2) 
EC2 enclosure with KPA100 and KAT100. You merely disconnect two cables (RF 
and RS232 Y cable) on the QRP K2 and you're done! Regards . . .Joe K4AA
