I visited the Elecraft booth again todayand got some more info on the new
K2 options:

1) The DSP option plugs into the connectors on the control board where
the KAF2 normally plugs into, thereby replacing the KAF2.

It includes a real-time clock.

Automatic notch and noise reduction are adjustable from the front panel.
----------
2)  The price of the band decoder unit is $159.

It can be used with other brands of radios as well as with the K2.
----------
3) The 3 transverters are for 6m, 2m and 1-1/4m (NOT 2m, 1-1/4m and 70cm
as I posted earlier.

The 50 MHz unit puts out 20 watts and the 144 & 222 MHz units put out 25
watts.

A 70cm (432 MHz) is in the works.

Physical size is a bit larger than I previously posted.  Their footprints
are the same as the K2, but their heights are slightly more than I
reported.  Two of the units stacked is about the same height as the K2.
