[Elecraft] K2 Rx vs K1 Rx

[J F]

Hi Dale,
I've had both, still have the K2 (and building a
second). The K1 was decent, but I work the big
contests and chase DX, so needed something that was
more bullet proof and flexible. 

The K2 is much more adaptable for those situations.
Multi bands in one package. 160 as an option with the
ability to use a seperate Rx antenna is a blessing.

I would say ultimately, it comes down to what you need
the Rx for: DX, Contests, Ragchewing, et al. For me,
the K2 Rx is hotter and less prone to interference
from close stations.

Cheers,
Julius
