Congratulations, Mark...
The K2 is a wonderful radio, all the way from bags of parts to your
first on-the-air QSO. IMHO, it is one the historic radios in the history
of amateur radio. You may own or someday buy a "state-of-the-art" radio
but such a rig will never replace that spot in your heart for your K2.
Have fun.

Congratulations!
I second that emotion. I built mine 15 years ago--most fun building
project ever! More fun than an HW-101. More fun than an HW-16. Way more
fun than a Twoer. May the QSO-eating grin never fade.

I’m proud to report that K2 #7867 is on the air! Just completed my first
QSO with Albert, K3AAR, on 40M CW running 5W into an EFHW. Al responded to
my second CQ. I started building in February of 2019, took most of the
summer and fall off, then finished it up over the last few weeks.
Thanks to all on this list who answered questions and gave advice during
the build. In particular thank you Don W3FPR for your direction during a
couple of rough spots on my end.
So glad that Wayne and Eric continue to offer this excellent kit, and I
encourage anyone who has ever considered the K2 to go for it. It’s well
worth the effort.
