[Elecraft] K2 Construction Question

Sun Mar 24 15:14:00 2002

Dennis,
        I am page 52 with K2 #2569 so I guess that makes me an expert
for everything on page 33.  I just looked at my board.  From the top
surface of the board mine is SCREW, LOCKWASHER, BOARD, 2D FASTENER.

        Are you missing any parts?  Mine is short 2 of the T1005
transformers, all of the 82 capacitors, and all of the 47 capacitors.
I will give Elecraft call tomorrow.

John
