Finally, 2602 is on the air!  WooHoo!

Had a little glitch. Somehow R44 didn't get installed. It's the very LAST
resistor installed and at that point I was just installing resistors off the
strip until I ran out. The result was I wasn't getting any output (it
biases/provides a sig to Q5 base, thereby turning the PA on... or so it thus
appears).

Have no idea how I missed seeing it not there but once I found it missing
the 'hole' was big as day.  Went down to my local parts store, soldered R44
in and was able to finish it right up.

Working absolutely superb here too.. can get 15+ watts out on 40, 10+ on 10
and WWV is dead nuts on ;)
