The K2 doesn't drift, usually.

As for the SSB, I have only used a K2 in CW mode.

There is a Elecraft reflector available from the website at www.elecraft.com
but keep in mind, the folks there are usually very happy elecraft customers.

I personally do not have a K2, but I have a 4 band K1 that I use almost
daily with no issues at all. The QRP group I belong to usually has two or
three K2s on the air during Field Day and they work very very well.

I know they have sold thousands of the K2 rigs and I really haven't heard
much in the grumbling department about their function. Pretty solid rig.

I've just started to shop for my first transceiver and Elecraft K2/100
looks very good. My first radio was a heathkit sw built in the early
60's, and I have good electronics assembly skills/tools -- so building
not a problem.

Questions:

1. I can't find much info on frequency drift. How is it in your
experience?

2. how well does the ssb option work? If its not a full speech
processor, is this an issue?
