[Elecraft] K2 Crystal Replacement - Grounding Recommendations

[Don Wilhelm]

Steve,
I usually ground X5 & X6 on the side too (just because ...), but unless you
really have a lot of patience and some special bent soldering iron tips, it
will be very difficult to ground the SSB board crystals on the sides.
