You are correct. Not a "real" build but for me it would be fun. I would never consider the K2 a real home brew either though. No drilling or etching boards. Everything is laid out for you and your walked through the build.
I never realized there were contest for home brewed equipment. That is so cool! Where and when are those held? Stan AE7UT True building is winding toroids and making hundreds of solder joints plus mechanical assembly. The k2 qualifies as a real home brewed rig for several club contests. The KX3 is a great rig but does not qualify as a true kit in the eyes of many contest sponsors.
