[Elecraft] K2 What mods during assembly?

[W7BRS]

As I wait patiently for my K2 kit to arrive I am wondering if the list 
could chime in with opinion about what mods and/or options are best to 
install DURING initial construction of the K2?

Before I get the flood of email telling me to  build the stock K2 first 
then add the options, I know.  I'm talking about the mods that you wished 
you had known about prior to starting K2 building so you could save one or 
two rounds of case-opening or old-work mods to the board(s).

I plan on building the K2 stock, plain, first.  Test, calibrate, 
etc..  then build and install the SSB option, test, calibrate, etc.. Then 
operate it for a while before I think of the PA/AT options.  But browsing 
the Elecraft website for the copious mods out there for the K2, I began to 
wonder if there was better sense in putting in _some_ of the 
critical/important mods to the RF/FP board during initial construction.

If this has already been covered in a FAQ, please accept my apologies for 
wasting the bandwidth (and send me the URL to the FAQ? ;-))

Thanks,

-jeff
