[Elecraft] K2 and stuff for sale

[Alexandra Carter]

Well, I am selling my K2 and K2 stuff, it's all on Ebay, I put the DSP, 
tuner, and noise gen on Ebay last night (the sig-gen too but someone 
already bought it) and the K2 will be put on tonight. The K2 is 
partially built, passes all tests with flying colors and no oopsies, 
the front panel came out beautiful - all switches really regular, 
display itself perfect, etc.

I'm just not finding time to work on this rig, and if past experiences 
are any guide, I won't find myself operating it. The one time I find 
myself feeling like operating is at HRO (there's a hard core of 
hanger-outers and I'm one of 'em!) or at the SLAC get-together, and 
then my CW's not good enough to do either. So, I'm going to work on my 
CW skills, so I can do that.

Thirdly, the K2 is a lot of rig! I've said out loud to more than one 
person that based on my actual operating, all I really need is a NorCal 
40a and leave it at that, that's almost too much radio for me lol. The 
ephiphany came when I met the guy ("mr Kitbuilders") who does all the 
SMT installations on just about all the QRP kits out there. He could 
have any rig he wants, but his operating is mainly done on a Small 
Wonder Labs 40-40 or some odd thing. It sounds like he has a ball too - 
from the sound of it his CW skills are good.

Maybe I just like building quickie kits, the M-cubed Electronix 
component tester someone on this list recommended to me is a blast, and 
I use it almost daily. I'm planning to get their freq counter/power 
meter kit next. The AADE LC Meter II kit is also highly recommended by 
me, great great piece of equipment.

Look on Ebay tonight if you feel like bidding on my K2 and 73 de Alex
