[Elecraft] Can I start K2 and KSB2 only?

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Hello Ruchan...

The K2 with a KSB2 is a great combination. If you live in an area =
bothered
by a lot of very high impulse noise (like auto ignition, cheap lamp =
dimmers,
etc.) the KNB2 is excellent. I purchased my K2 with those two =
accessories
and I was VERY happy with it.=20

Of course, if you need an antenna tuning unit, the KAT2 is an excellent
investment. I'm guessing not, since you didn't mention it.=20

I'll probably add the KDSP2 to mine out of curiosity, but I've never =
felt
the need for any additional filters for typical use. I am a CW op, by =
the
way. My KSB2 is used for data which is less than 1% of my operating =
anyway.=20

IF you think you might want to go QRO with the KPA100, don't bother with =
the
KAT2 or the KIO2. The KAT2 is rated at 20 watts for use with the =
"barefoot"
K2 and the KIO2 is built into the KPA100.=20

 would like to buy K2 with KSB2 only. Is this OK, or do I need any other
parts to start with?
 I am planning to add some other parts, such as KDSP2, KIO2, KNB2 etc. =
later
on, it this OK?.
Any comment would be appreciated.
