I used to find the KDSP2 (which I thought sounded funny) and the KAF2 on
eBay. I'm guessing you can find the other bits as well.

Hank,
At this point the only options unavailable in addition to the KPA100 are the
K60XV 60M/Tranverter module and the KDSP2 Audio Filter module. The KAT2
internal 20W ATU is still available as are all the other modules. To key the
KXPA100 amp (or any other external amp) you will need to add a keying circuit
to the basic K2 as it is not a native option in the K2. There are many
circuits found on the web for doing this. If you don't want to roll one on
your own, I happen to sell a kit for doing just that here:

As an addition, I also work part time for Elecraft providing tech support for
their older line of products like the K2, K1 and KX1. As I am not physically
located at Elecraft in Watsonville, CA (I'm just south of Detroit, MI), you
can always get a hold of me at dave at elecraft dot com. I support all the
new kits being sold and if you pull the trigger, get a hold of me for a
couple of tips before you begin you K2 build.
It is a highly satisfactory experience to build something of this magnitude
and while we have plenty of stock left for the K2, as you know, it won't last
forever. It is well worth the effort.

Hey folks.
I want to try and tackle a more challenging kit build. I built my K3S back
in Oct 2018 and it was pretty easy. Same for my KX3 2 years later.
The K2 looks like more of a real kit with challenges! After seeing old
posts here, I can see there are certain items no longer available from
Elecraft due to parts availability. Is there anything else discontinued
besides the 100 watt amp and 100 watt antenna tuner?
I already own the 100 watt amp for my KX3 so I could use it maybe? Will
band changing be as seamless??
There are some decent discounts right now on packages.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Hank
