Thanks to all of you who have responded so far.  Apparently there are two (2) 
bags for the RF board i.e. "RFa" and "RFb".  I'll call Scott on Monday and 
ask for the missing "RFa" bag to be sent out.

I'm looking forward to getting that K2 on the air so this was frustrating. I 
may suggest putting a quality control procedure in place so that this type of 
omission would be less likely to occur. I'm not suggesting anything as 
elaborate as ISO9000 but something as simple as enclosing a (signed) 
inventory list might be effective.

73 for now,
