Your K2 will do just fine as it is, but there are some updates that you
may want to consider:

- Upgrade from revision A to revision B (i.e. serial # 3000+) 
- Since you have the 100 W option, you may want to consider the TCXO
(Temperature Compensation) 	option in serial # 3446+
- The last one is the CW keying bandwidth mod which is in serial # 4060+

The KPA100 has had a few upgrades also:
- a new shield
- An upgrade that makes it handle higher SWR before power roll-back

There are kits for all these options that can be purchased from Elecraft
and they will bring your K2 to the latest revision level as the proper
firmware upgrades will be included.

You will find info and links on http://www.qsl.net/la3za/K2/mod.html
plus many other minor mods.
