Great fun to build, Ted. When I "finished" my K2 I 
was almost sad to see the project go. But it was 4 
years or so of fun, from mid-1999 thru 2003 or so, 
as the new options (SSB, KPA100, etc.) came 
available. And since then some upgrades, here and 
there -- even some 3rd party add-ins.  The K2, as 
it has turned out, is the last major ham radio 
kit. I don't expect that to change, now that 
thru-hole parts are largely supplanted by SMT.  So 
take your time and enjoy it to the fullest.

73, Phil W7OX
