[Elecraft] K2 or K1?

[Fred (FL)]

K1 or K2 or Elecraft?

I built the K2 #54xx last spring.  Went very well,
soldering skills came back quickly - from my
previous ham Heathkit days ..........

One thing I would strongly recommend, although not
necessary - is to buy the PRE-BUILT TOROIDS, from the
"Toroid Man" Mike.  He's listed on the Elecraft 
website.

He winds and tins almost perfect Toroids.  Each is
carefully marked in a small envelope - ready to
install.  I bet that one decision - made my K2
build a total success!  I recall - he had them
built and shipped to me, before I even had paid
him, or before my personal check had cleared
at his end.  He is very good to work with!

I toroid mis-install, 1 extra or short winding, on
a single toroid - can cause MUCH grief!

Good luck on your build decision.
Elecraft - you will not regret it!
