Does anyone have a KX2 that’s gathering dust, no longer used, replaced etc. that you, understandably, can’t bring yourself to sell on eBay?
For personal reasons the 3-4 month lead time for a new one is probably too long, so I’m looking to buy a lonely secondhand example that I can use for POTA and general out-and-about operations.
I’m not too bothered about spec. I’m 100% CW and I have a T1 tuner (although a built-in ATU would be nice).
So if you have one and can put a realistic price on it please let me know.
I’m in Cumbria if that makes any difference.
Thanks

Leo, you have a better chance on the Elecraft KX group, especially if you offer to pay new price for a used one.

Thanks. I’ll do that. It’s already in the Elecraft group.
Hi Leo,
in the meantime Lutz Electronics in Switzerland are able to deliver.
I ordered mine on September 19th and got it yesterday

Thanks Helmut, that looks like a good option. If I can’t find a used KX2 I may go that route.

I have a crystal ball that tells me we are 16 days away from an announcement that might interest you, as long as you are 100% CW.

Ohhh, a new Elecraft announcement? Or maybe an MTR?

Great. Now I’m going to be on tenterhooks for at least 15 days.

I added you to the list, Todd. If things change, let me know. The hotel wants a final-final count 72 hours in advance, and I’m charged for no shows.
