Ted,

The 9 pin connector on the KIO2 is not compatible with the signals 
required by either amplifier.  You will be better off using only the PA 
Amp Keying from the K2.
That Amp Keying output is not standard on the K2, but I believe Dave Van 
Wallaghen W8FGU is making up kits.  Send an email to Dave at W8FGU.com 
to ask.
