As I dug around in my store room to recover the KTA100-2, which sold
quickly, I also found, still in the brown paper, an original K2 QRP top
cover. I believe this was left over from K2 build that went directly to
the 100 watt amp option. Sop if anyone needs a new top cover, contact
me off list.

I always wondered why Elecraft discontinued the EC2 enclosure. Even the mod to
use the EC2 enclosure with the 100 watt amp and tuner was unofficial as I
understood. I built the 100 amp and tuner in the EC2 as per the instructions to
mate with the K2. Maybe the demand was not there but neat setup and works great!

Johnny,
NO! First of all, the KPA100 occupies the entire top area of the K2
(there is no room in the K2 for both) and secondly, the KAT2 is only
rated for 20 watts,
and thirdly, the ATU must be between the amplifier and the antenna - a
tuner at the input of an amplifier will do nothing useful.
Use the KAT100-1 - it is about half the height of the K2 enclosure.
Contrary to some comments I have seen and heard, the KAT100-1 is
available and will be for some time in the future.
It is the EC2 enclosure that is no longer available, and the KAT100-2
depended on the EC2 for the enclosure, so the KAT100-2 had to be
discontinued at the same time as the EC2 was discontinued.

I am looking at a K2-100 that is has the amp mounted in the top cover.
Is it possible to have the 20 watt internal tuner in this enclosure
With the amp?
