Given that the current serial numbers are nearing 7000, having built 300
is on the order of 3-6% of the total constructed!  If a SINGLE person is
building that many and there are other people building for other hams, how
many people have actually build their own K2?  Are commercial builders
responsible for more K2's than someone who builds 1-4 for themselves?

For me the MAJOR attractions of the K2 is the ability to build your own
modern HF rig (albeit 10 year old technology as someone alluded to in
another thread), something that hasn't been seen since the days of
Heathkit.

Are most K2 users people who buy it prebuilt?

tnx.
