Don,

You are conflating two different rigs.  01949 is the QRP rig mentioned
by W6YCA who has no idea of what is installed, etc.  Tim does not know
the serial number of the K2/100 with SSB, DXP and KAT100 owned by his
friend (that has only receive "lowball" offers).  It is the K2/100 that
you supposedly built and have worked on a couple of times.

73,

    ... Joe, W4TV
