[Elecraft] [K2] Kit Building Time ?

[david]

My experience:   

Basic K2 Build time:  57 hours over 16 days

Options:
SSB:   13 hours over 4 days
Audio filter:   5 hours 

KPA100 build time:  38 hours over 9 days

Total build time:   113 hours

YMMV.

My K3 time was about average, about 8 1/2 hours.  I never did time the KX1 because it was spread out over several weeks (I traveled a lot for work during that time).
