[Elecraft] loaded K2 vs K3

The conclusion one can draw is that there won't be many K2s sold for  
exclusively home (base) use. The more options one puts on a K2, the  
less value it presents. The market for those who want a low power  
consumption rig must be close to saturated, or at least will be if  
lots of K2s hit the market in anticipation of their owners moving up  
to a K3.

To me, the K2/100 seems doomed as the price differential, as you  
point out, needless to mention the value, is clearly in the favor of  
the K3. And the big advantage of the K2, low power consumption,  
doesn't really come into play with these QRO rigs.

Speaking of value, I have a bare K2 with no options here on the desk.  
How many other K2s are there out there with no options? - Dr.
