QST Magazine:  "The K2's receiver performance compares very favorably to that of the samples of the high-end radios we've recently examined... The fact that a radio in this price class, and a home-built one at that, can stand proudly in such company is a remarkable accomplishment."  QST K2 Product Review 

Comprehensive Assembly and User Manuals

Our illustrated step-by-step assembly instructions include modular assembly and check out of each control, receive and transmit stage. Clear instructions combined with an extensive theory of operation section make the K2 radios you can easily build, understand and even modify. (You can even download our manuals.)

Easy to Build, Understand and Repair

The Elecraft's wireless design methodology eliminates most point-to-point wiring inside the radio. Boards plug directly into each other to form a clean, rugged and open design. All boards are easily accessible for test, alignment and repair. The KX1 and K2 utilize only through-hole user installed components for easy construction.

Lab Equipment Not Required

The K3S, K2 and KX3 all include built in test firmware and equipment to make alignment and test quick and easy, without requiring a lab full of expensive test equipment. Built in equipment on the includes a digital voltmeter, ammeter, frequency counter (K2) and RF power meter. Microprocessor based self-alignment firmware speeds the testing of your kit.

Growing Elecraft since 1998 has been a very enjoyable experience. Both of us appreciate your support and suggestions. Your enthusiasm and feedback keeps us energized and working on our new Elecraft products.
