The current UK licensing regime requires that a project be built before
one can get from the 10 watt limited Foundation Licence to the 50 watt
limited Intermediate Licence. It can't be a transmitter though, as one
cannot use kit built equipment until you have gained the intermediate
licence (it looks like Intermediate Licensee transmitter kits must meet
some type approval rules, whereas full licence ones look like they are
exempt). Assuming that there is some flexibility in what is built, I
would presume that there would be some market for a K2 with build
instructions modified to complete all the receiver bands before starting
on the transmitter, for when the licensee upgraded; it might need
appropriate type approval, though, for that market. It would far exceed
the construction experience required for the licence!
