[Elecraft] Just wondering

[Don Wilhelm]

Bud,

The Field Test of the K2 started in late 1998 and ended in 1999 (I 
believe May) with the first production K2.

I would assume SN 2514 was shipped about 2002.  That is a Rev A K2, and 
if not installed, would benefit from the A to B upgrades.  The boards 
were re-done to REV B to incorporate all the prior upgrade mods at SN 
3000.  A serial number 2514 would have to be physically instected to 
determine which upgrades (different from options) have been installed.

73,
Don W3FPR
