[Elecraft] K2 vs. K2/100

[Don Wilhelm]

Brian,

My opinion - If you already have the K2 fitted with the KAT2, KIO2, and 
internal battery, then put the KPA100 into an external EC2 enclosure 
(along with the KAT100-2 either now or later).
It allows you to take the QRP K2 along on vacation or trips easily
OTOH, if you now have only the bare QRP top cover, and are not really 
excited about using the QRP K2 portable, then just mount the KPA100 on 
the K2.

It works great either way.

73,
