As I recall, if you get the KPA100 it has an I/O so you do not need (and I believe) can't install the I/O in the K2. They physically interfere with each other.
I would also consider buying and installing the 160 meter adaptor before the KPA100. Although I don't have the 160 adaptor in my K2/100, I seem to remember that if you go too far before installing the 160 adaptor you have to take a lot of things apart to install it later. Maybe someone else can better explain that.

I'll be sending out my 1st order for a K2 station next week. Many thanks to Jim Sheldon, W0EB for his demo of a K2 that flat out blew my mind. I still would like help from the users selecting both the construction order and exactly what to buy. Below is a list of what (& what order) I'm thinking of buying: 1) K2, KSB2 (May) 2) KPA100 (August) 3) K160RX, KNB2, KIO2 (September) 4) K60XV, KDSP2 (November) 5) XV50 (January '06) 6) XV144 (March '06) Have I missed anything? Is that order of construction a good one? Thanks for all the help! Just my 2¢ worth... 73's es gd dx de Ken KGØWX Grid EM17ip, Flying Pigs #1055, Digital On Six #350, List Owner, Yahoo!
