[Elecraft] I learned about that from doing Rev B

I ordered and received my Rev B up grade kit for my K2 S/N 323. I
accomplished the Rev B mods including the VFO temp stability mod. I put my
K2 back together and found my PLL oscillator freq was extremely low in Cal
FTR on TP3. I spent the afternoon trouble shooting my problem.. Here is
where I goofed up. My K2 had  solenoidal (cylindrical) inductors for L33 and
L31. They both look identical in size and color. It is very difficult to see
the value. I ended up installing a 39uH inductor which is to be discarded
from L33  at L31. Thank God I did not empty the trash today. I was able to
dig through the trash and find the 10uH inductor and installed it at L31. My
K2 is now functional again. Wayne you may want to make a note of caution not
to mix these removed inductors up in the next instruction manual for Rev B
up grade to older K2's
