Getting old is a pain when it means we can no longer do some of the things
we love to do. The price you are asking for the set of K2 items would mean
you are taking quite a loss on the items you had bought.

One option to consider is to find someone you know and can trust to do the
soldering work for you. You can do the final assembly and alignment. At
least you will the satisfaction of having done some work on the K2 even if
it wasn't the soldering of parts that you originally expected to be doing.
You will also wind up with a nice radio that you can use on the air.
