[Elecraft] Control Panel resistance checks?

Hi Tom,

C7 will not affect the resistance readings.

The points you named are all very high resistance points and the actual
measured value will depend on the kind of meter you use (because the test
voltage applied will vary from meter to meter) and the orientation of the
test probes.

I measured 1.8 meg ohms on all these points on my K2.  The main thing is
that you don't have an unusually low value ( less than 100K ) which might
indicate a solder bridge somewhere. Looks like you're okay :-)
