[Elecraft] KDSP2 discontinued??

[Phil Wheeler]

Such things are probably doable, Kevin. But the 
market size issue is likely a major factor 
mitigating against such a development by Elecraft.

If I were to build a second K2 after all these 
years, I'd sure want the KDSP2 in it; but that's 
not something I'm likely to do. My (partly) 17 
year old K2 #380 is still working quite nicely and 
fully upgraded with all Elecraft updates -- and 
some 3rd party ones, too :-)
