[Elecraft] K2 FOR SALE

[Darwin, Keith]

Sorry to hear about that Bill.  I second the thought that not being able
to build a K2 does not mean you don't get the pleasure of operating a
K2.

I spent a couple of months building my K2.  I plan to spend many years
operating it.  If you skip the building phase and go straight to
operating you'll still get 90% of the enjoyment out of the rig.

Also, if your condition is intermittent (or even temporary) you might
get periods of relief when you could build.  That would be a great time
to do one of the options as they are smaller and take less time.

73 Bill!

Well, my luck has run out and I thought I could finish the K2.
Everything was fine, until I couldn't hold onto the soldering iron
anymore. No, not the heated end either. LOL. I am shaking so much again,
that I had to stop and give up.  You never know when this will happen so
I thought I would be able to build the kit. With the help of Scott at
Elecraft and the members of he group, I have done quite well so
far.However, the time has come to stop and face the music. I am afraid I
am going to do some type of damage to the kit because of this problem.
Darn, just when I thought my health problems had gone away for awhile
and I thought I could finish the kit before they came back. Well, I
guess I lost this race. I am willing to sell the kit unfinished as is. I
have started to assemble the thyristor board and have been able to pass
all the tests but the 4.00 MHz test. Might just be the probe I
assembled. I have two damaged parts, that are being sent to me from
Elecraft. One is the  VFO knob and the other is a resistor network that
I had damaged. Included with the kit is the K2 and the sideband option.
I will consider all offers and will be happy to email out of the room if
you have any questions. Thanks.
