Hello all,
I've been out of the loop for a while, but I am looking to fire up the soldering iron and digging in again. My K2, #1998, was one of the earlier kits. It is a revision A. Right now it has the 160 board, internal battery and NB options, but it is strictly CW.
I want to get the rig back 'up to snuff' and do whatever mods need to be done to make it current. I plan to add the SSB module, and eventually ditch the battery and add the amp, but for now, what are the critical drop-dead mods I need to do so that I am starting on a level playing field? I sold my big-rig last year and so the K2 is my one-and-only.
I also noticed that there is a lot of documentation on soldering, but none on desoldering. Any good ideas would be appreciated since I see a lopt of that in my future. Thanks guys and gals,
Jim
