Re: [Elecraft] KAT 100-1 vs KAT 100-2
One of the best reasons for the larger enclosure is to install the KPA-100 in the same unit as the ATU and keep the K2 with it's battery pack and internal ATU intact. - Original Message - From: "jim danehy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2004 5:27 AM Subject: [Elecraft] KAT 100-1 vs KAT 100-2 I am trying to make a decision on which enclosure when ordering the 100 watt automatic antenna tuner. I am not going to be using the enclosure for a speaker or power supply. I normally use my K2/100 elevated ( 2 1/2 " ). Does the smaller enclosure come with a bail and feet or just feet ?

Re: [Elecraft] KAT 100-1 vs KAT 100-2
Hi, Jim- Th reason for the larger enclosure is that a lot of ops prefer to remote the KPA100 together with the KAT100-2. This of course requires the larger area afforded by an EC2 external enclosure which can be purchased separately. The KAT100-2 kit slips inside the lower part of the EC2 enclosure and includes front and back panels. The KPA100 fits in the upper portion, its heatsink making up the top panel of the enclosure, just as it does when it is integrated into the K2. The self-contained KAT100-1 comes with standard feet, but a bail can be ordered. I use this bail on my KAT100-1. Since the K2 is placed directly atop the KAT100-1, it makes the bail of the K2 superfluous. If you are at all interested in remoting the KPA100, excellent info in this regard can be found at: http://www.fidalgo.net/~wa7gxd/k2kpa100.html 73, Mychael AA3WF K2#1025 - ...
