[Elecraft] [K2]Using the K2 while assembling the KP!100 doable?

[Don Wilhelm]

Ron,

Read about those mods carefully again.  If your K2 serial number is 
greater than 3000, the mods are already included on your control board.  
Do not make any cuts until you are certain.

If your K2 Serial is 2999 or lower, yes add the changes to the control 
board.
Yes, the K2 will operate very well with these changes in place.  
However, the sidetone source must be set to U8-4 once the changes have 
been made or you will not hear sidetone.

73,
Don W3FPR
