Sell the 950 and use the proceeds to get all the additional options
for your K2 (or maybe a nice chunk of change to save for a K3).
Just don't expect to sell it to many on this list.. :-)
I am building my third K2 (I sold the previous ones to pay for other
things, not because of the radio) and will be eventually putting all
the extras in it. It will become my main station rig. My 756 will
then be used for 6 meters or eventually sold.
Someday a K3 will find its way into my shack but until then, the K2
will fill my needs just fine.
Congrats on your K2.
73,
