[Elecraft] RE: Next K2 Addon

>what is the logical next step, auto-tuner or SSB board?

Both the auto-tuner and the SSB board make the K2 much more capable, and
I think you should do both -- in whatever order you want, over whatever
time period you want.  Give yourself Christmas or Birthday presents over
the next couple of years.  

But:  before you button up the basic K2, put in the connector for the
auto-tuner.  It's trivial before the heat sink is installed, while
removing the heat sink and re-installing it is an unpleasant job.  Most
unpleasant jobs are good for you -- they improve character -- but not
this one.

If you don't buy the KAT2 along with the basic kit, at least ask for the
connector and install it, just in case.
