I use my K2/100 as my primary shack rig...I do have a new FT857 in the =
car
but I would never use it to replace the K2.  If you're a CW op and love
contests you'll love the K2....listening to CW for hours on end on the =

can give you a headache...the K2 however is a dream to listen to, unless =

BTW I always leave the rig at 5 watts unless someone gives me a really

estimate 90% of my contacts are done with 5 watts.

Just DO IT!

You'll be very pleased with your K2 as a primary.
