Eric,

Yes, it is possible to mount the KPA100 in an EC2 enclosure - If you 
already have the enclosure.  Just mount it instead of the EC2 enclosure 
top cover.

You will need to add a BNC connector to the lower rear panel of the EC2 
so you can attach the coax from the K2 to the input coax of the KPA100.

If you also want to add the KAT100, you will have to contact Elecraft 
sales to see if they have any of the E100142 - KAT100-2 Front panel and 
the E100143 - KAT100-2 rear panels left.  If they have them, order those 
panels and the KAT100-1.  You will also need E620012, x2 - 2 pin male, 
0.156" spacing Male headers and E620040 - connector 10 pin (5x2) male 
connector 0.1" spacing.

Make up the control cable shown in the KAT100 manual and you will be 
good to go.  You need that control cable whether or not you have the KAT100.
