The K2 is not discontinued and will not be in the near future, but the
KPA100 and the KAT100 have been discontinued.
The KAT2 is still available if you want to operate at 10 to 15 watts output.
If you want 100 watts and the KAT100 tuner, you will have to ask if
anyone has one or the other for sale.
An alternative is the KX3 with the KAT3 tuner, but if you need 100
watts, you can easily add the KXPA100 and the KXAT3 tuner. That will
work seamlessly with the KX3 at 0 to 100 watts.
The K2 is for those who want to "solder their own" The KX3 (or the KX2
offer a non-build it yourself solution - although there is no soldering
for either one.
At 12 to 15 watts, the K2 plus the KAT2 does a great job - as does the
KX3 (or KX2 with the low power tuner.
As I said, if you need 100 watts, go for the KXPA100 with the KXPA100 ATU.

HI group....
I've been thinking about purchasing a nice used K2 but I've noticed
Elecraft doesn't have the KAT100 tuner anymore. Has there been any talk to
discontinuing the K2?
Thoughts?
