[Elecraft] Older K2??

You will find even the oldest K2s are solid performers.
I'm still using my s/n 12 !  It is still stock, with none of the
upgrades installed yet.  I bought the upgrade kits, but
never got around to isntalling them.  Great little radio as
it stands, and works very well as a contest radio too.
I'd say go ahead and get the K2.  I can't see how you would regret it.
Good luyck and 73
