WOW!!!
This building project has been fantastic. I've certainly learned or 
relearned heaps...
Thanks to Elecraft and all those who have helped me along the way, I am 
extremely happy with results.
Everything is now complete and all seems to be working well but I can't 
recall if I did CAL PLL after resetting c22 in my final alignment.

If I repeat CAL PLL on my K2, does that mean that I must redo CAL FIL 
and all filter alignments again?

I did filter alignments using a noise generator and Spectrogram and the 
graphs appear much as the examples in Don's W3FPR alignment 
instructions, but I'm not too sure exactly what I am looking for In 
Spectrogram. I simply tried to get graphs to be as similiar as possible 
to the examples. Apologies for dumb question but, Is there something 
special I should be looking for? Something to be minimised or maximised 
in the graphs?

If I do CAL PLL and CAL FIL again, does that mean I should also redo 
KAT100 settings?

I've also built the cable between k2 K102 and PC and all tests ok.

I've not made any on air contacts yet with this rig other than into a 
dummy load and some testing of my  antenna with KAT100.
I wanted to get alignments done as well as possible first.
Maybe I'll get my feet wet this weekend!!! :-)
