    THIS IS THE ULTIMATE SHAK RAK - TOTE PAK FOR BOTH TAKING YOUR KX2 WITH YOU ON A HIKING TRIP AND THEN USING IT IN THE SHACK FOR DOUBLE DUTY!

    LOOK UP NOVEXCOMM DOT COM TO SEE MORE OF OUR GREAT STUFF.

    CONSIDERING THAT THE RADIO & PA COST WAY MORE THAN THE CASE WE OFFER THE ANSWER IS "NO; THEY AREN'T INCLUDED..." BUT WE BET YOU ALREADY KNEW THAT!

    KEEP READING - IT GETS BETTER!

    This RAK PAK auction comes with portable case, the rack panel, the 110 / 220vAC 30 amp power supply (see the picture of the tray with it there) already mounted, the quick-release mounting bracket and complete instructions. This way you order the package ready to use on arrival - plug and play!

    Want to slide it into the Shak Rak? Unscrew the 4 bolts and slide the tray out; plug it into the shack AC power; connect the antenna and start talking; this unit is ready to use mobile or fixed!

    OK so you are the backpacker type and you bought the KX2 to take with you with its' portable battery inside; SO: you slide the PAK out of the RAK and loosen up the 3 screws on the Quick Release KX2 hold-down padded bracket (NO we won't scratch up your cool KX2 either!) Unplug the cables & connectors and walk away. Easy to do and fast to transfer over.

    The photo shows both radio and amplifier images and NO they are not included! (Sorry 'bout that)

    The mike is upgraded to a Magnetic Mike Clip that sticks right to the front panel; it is included too

    There is a 4 conductor mike extension and a 3 conductor KEY extension below the radio head pre-wired for plug-and play

    The aluminum tray is 13" deep; the panel is bolted to the tray with out custom corner brackets

    Need a fan on the tray to cool the radio? We can supply one for $25 extra! Just ask!

    The KX2 has very low audio out the headphone jack so we have created an amplified version of our popular speaker just for this setup; it really works great and is several times louder than the KX2 by itself; very impressive!

    The 3U Shak Rak - Tote Pak comes in a tote case ready to go - right out the door already built up as shown.

    We make custom racks for almost any radio; please call!

    So here is what you need to do to get YOUR very own KX2 Shak Rak - Tote Pak:

    • First contact us M-F 10a-6p Pacific Time and let's talk about what you got with your KX2.
    • Assuming that you have both the KXPA100 and the KX2 you also need the Elecraft special KX2-KX3 conversion cable kit to make the amp key with a KX2 (an Elecraft afterthought)
    • Then we discuss which items you have to send to us for us to make a few simple modifications.
    • We have to make brackets to fit the KXPA but we do have the template for the KX2.
    • We supply the AC power supply, cord and DC input to the amp; and the amp supplies the DC to the KX2 - just be sure you get Elecraft's special cable.
    • NOTE that due to the close spacing that we have to make up a special antenna-to-amp cable since the factory cable just won't make the tight corner.
    • DO call and talk about this as they are quite complex and as Elecraft has made changes over the years... yours may be different.

  • Silly disclaimers we have to say: Any radios, tuners, accessories, etc. shown are not included in this auction.  We can't afford to have a sample of every radio ever made sitting around here just for photos so many of our images are Photoshopped. Some of them aren't even of the right  radio; in some cases we put a photo of a similar radio there just to give you an idea of what our rack panel will look like when you mount your radio into it.
