[Elecraft] Question on KSB2

[W6NEK]

Hello Michael,
You should have received a quanity of 5 each 0.1ufd monolithic caps "104"
with .2" (5mm) lead spacing.  The elecraft part number is E530011.  If
missing in your kit, you can order the above parts from Elecraft at
parts@elecraft.com  The 27 caps you refer to should be .01 ufd "103" caps
with .1" (2.5mm) lead spacing.  They should not be used at locations C15,
18, 27, 32, & 46.  I think you misidentified the 27 caps as .1 ufd rather
then .01 ufd.  Look at your inventory again.  Chances are you have all the
parts.

Best 73...
Frank - W6NEK
