[Elecraft] K2 not dead yet

[DW Holtman]

Hello,

My fully loaded K2 is a great rig to use. I have spent a lot of time 
building, troubleshooting etc to get it up and running the way it should 
work, it is a keeper. I'm still working on a XV50, that has major problems, 
and awaiting an KAT100 autotuner (on Back order), but when everything is up 
and running will have a very nice station. I'm going to sell a Collins 
75A-4, one of my R-390a's, Collins 32S-1 and 75S-1 to pay for an on order 
K3. I'm still love boatanchors, and will keep the gear I most like, but want 
a K3.

Best,
DW Holtman
