	The K2 is widely regarded as one of the highest-performance [[~~rig~~\|rigs]] in amateur radio. Because it is a kit, it offers challenges above and beyond those of off-the-shelf rigs. However, it is not difficult to assemble a K2. [[Elecraft]] has written extremely detailed assembly instructions, provides ongoing support by way of email and an email list/reflector, and the design puts nearly all of the parts on one of several PC boards which plug together directly, with few wires used.

	The basic K2 design puts out 15 watts on [[Modes#Continuous Wave (CW)\|CW]], but its capabilities can be extended with optional add-on boards. These offer [[Modes#Single-Sideband Modulation (SSB)\|SSB]], [[Digital Signal Processing (DSP)\|DSP]], internal battery power, an automatic [[antenna tuner]], and other features.
