[Elecraft] K2 with the W2 Wattmeter kit

[Don Wilhelm]

Ray,

The W2 is *not* transceiver specific, it will work with any transceiver, 
Elecraft or other.

It will also work fine with your K2.

Where you place it depends on where you wish to read the SWR.  If you 
are interested in seeing the SWR at the input to the KAT100, then place 
it between the KPA100 and the KAT100 - but really, I can not understand 
why you would want to do that, the KAT100 LEDs will tell you the same SWR.
If your interest is in the SWR at the end of the transmit feedline, then 
you place it after the KAT100.  That will show you the SWR looking into 
your feedline, and at the same time, the KAT100 LEDs will telll you the 
SWR that the KPA100 is seeing.

73,
