I just built a K1 while recovering from gallbladder surgery. For my money, if you are on painkillers the K1 is easier to build, though I stared at the LCD backlight instructions for about an hour before any understanding seeped in. Such is building on Vicodin. The fiddly battery option is a plus since you want to draw out the building process as long as possible, like reading a good book. I don't think I could have built my KX1 on Vicodin, I remember that build being a little more demanding.
One other thing, you can build multiple filter boards, and if you are really crafty you can build an FL1-2 board, then change both bands and rebuild it! Have fun whichever way you go Eric WD6DBM Sent from my iPhone ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
