Greetings to all, My K2/100 ser. no. 3595 has served faithfully with nary a niggle for almost two decades now. It did receive a thorough alignment and 60m upgrade, courtesy of Don Wilhelm, approx. two years ago. It now excites an Ameritron AL-80BQ.
I also own a Yaesu FT-991a (Purchased for its VHF/UHF SSB/CW capability.) While on paper, the newer rig's rcvr should handily outperform the older K2, it doesn't to my ears. The K2 is more pleasant to listen to and has, on at least one occasion, "heard" a DX sig that the Yaesu simply didn't using the very same antenna and comparable rcvr settings. I doubt anybody would be disappointed with the K2's performance, particularly on CW. Best of health and happy holidays to all.
