[Elecraft] AL7FS success on K2 Front Panel Section toughest part

[KCØIFL]

Jim,

Not to disagree at all, but I still say the toughest part for me was the
tilt stand!  I would rather wind 3 toroids than have to do the stand over
again!   ;-)

Separating that double sided tape stuff was a bear as well.  Kinda like
peeling the back off of these new label maker labels.  Man those 'old' label
tape machines were easy, they even made a little part at the end of the tape
to start the peel.   Ahhh the good ol' days....
