I just started stuffing my K2 RF board. Before beginning I did a
complete count of all the parts and found 2 missing. I must complement
the Elecraft support. I sent an eMail and had the parts in my hand
within 48 hours. Unbelievable !
I write to comment on sorting parts. I looked around a few sporting
goods stores and found the usual assortment of fishing tackle trays. I
stopped in to a Boater's World in the LA area and found a "bundle" of
compartment boxes for just under $10. The "bundle" included one very
small box, two medium boxes, one large, and one very large. All in all,
the assortment gave me about 100 pigeon holes to place the parts. I
needed to finish the front panel assembly by adding in the few parts
from the SSB adapter. I had a tray left over and was able to sort all
of my SSB components.
In response to Mike - KD7YLA - take a look at your local sporting goods
stores, I'm sure you will be able to find the same sort of "bundle"/ It
was a real deal, keeps the parts sorted. and provides protection if the
tray is jostled in between building episodes.
