One thing Wayne/Eric have been scrupulous about is to offer mods/updates to
current K2 owners so their rigs work every bit as well as the latest one
shipped.
So you can't make your choice based on any possible performance improvement
of a newer K2 over your older one if you have done the updates and mods.
That said, what's not to like about having two K2s??? And if you like to
build, what's not to enjoy in assembling another one to get that second K2.
Good rigs are like pretty girls or beautiful sunsets. They don't need to be
justified. They are reason enough just being there...

This falls into the "help me rationalize what I want
to do" bucket, but make it factual.
I am an owner of a K2 sn 1014 who loves to build. It
has SSB, NB, 160M, auto tuner and battery. (Also have
a KX1 and a T1)
Should I;
1. Upgrade the K2 and add the KP100 (Upgrades are
about $140 total)...or
2. Buy a new K2 with the SSB option and KP100 ?
The end results are of course different as in #2 I
would have 2 K2's.
Are there any comments on installing the full boat of
upgrades required for an old K2 to get it current ?
Thanks
