[Elecraft] KPA100-1

[Don Wilhelm]

Tom,

You existing KAT2 (and everything else in the QRP K2 top cover) is removed
and the KPA100 installs in place of it.

There is another option available to you - if you want to retain the QRP K2
for portable use, then mount the KAT100-2 and the KPA100 together in an
external EC2 enclosure.  That configuration does require the KIO2 in your
QRP K2, but it works well.  If you choose this configuration, your KAT2
stays in place but is automatically bypassed with the output routed to the
ANT1 connector.

If you want the KPA100 mounted on the K2 instead of externally, order the
KAT100-1 (the lower height enclosure is included).

The KAT100 can be located anywhere in the shack that your cable length to it
will allow.  The kit includes all cables and connectors except the coax to
the KAT100.  You need a control cable between the K2 and the KAT100, and
that same cable will become a 'Y' cable if you also wire the connector at
the K2 end with the cable for attaching to a computer serial port (that wire
is included too).

73,
Don W3FPR
