[Elecraft] remoting the KPA-100

[Eric Manning]

YES!  That way, if any little glitches pop up  when you remote the 
KPA-100, you can eliminate a lot of possibilities up front.  For 
instance, if there are communication problems when it's remoted but 
it's OK when in the single box, you can focus on the RS-232 path 
between the two microprocessors . It's just the same principle of 
building a piece of the kit, then testing it before building any 
more, which Elecraft always follows.

Is it recommended to integrate the KPA100 with the K2 and get it all
working together before remoting it in the EC2?
