[Elecraft] K2 12m/10m BPF mod problem?

[Tim and Nancy Logan]

Hi folks - I gotta tell ya' It was NO FUN doing the BPF MOD and the VFO
ALC MOD for use with the KPA100! Gadzooks! I had a $%#@*&^ of a time
getting those old parts out - which brings me to my question. I am not a
100% sure if I did not over heat the holes for C45's replacement. Not a
100% happy with C42 and C48 but I think they are OK - tuff area to work
in :-) I think there was enough lining left in the board hole and it
seems to have held well with solder. I buttoned my baby backup and
prayed. So far all bands seem to work fine and tune as normal. Thank
God!

However, could C45 not have a proper connection without it at being
obvious at this point - or would it be immediately obvious? OR will it
only be obvious when I finish the KPAAMP? Any advise will be
appreciated. If it's a potential problem now is the time to fix it.
Anyway to check for sure that C45, C42, and C48 are properly serving
their function now?

Thanks folks? PS is anybody building a Rock-mite? If so, could you
emailme direct - I have a question. Thanks. 73/Tim Logan NZ73
