Thank you for your compliments. I'll scan and send along a copy of the
original to those who want it as an attachment (off the list of course).
Once I got the parts gathered it went together in a couple of hours. If
you think a regular bug is a bear to adjust wait until you try this one.
The thumb screws are size 4-40 which I picked up a bunch of years ago to
hold a shield in place on a analog to digital converter I designed
for a company I worked for. An outfit called www.smallparts.com carries
them nowadays. They have a catalog on the web.
I use them because I spend alot of time inside my K2. Using six of them
where normally the 4-40 philips heads go to hold the top cover or PA in
place.. I also put threaded inserts on the side of the K2/100 PA. Saves
wear and tear on me and the rig. Only
problem is the regular 9 pin RS-232 plug doesn't fit into place because
the knurled part of the screw hangs over the 9 pin plug abit.
