[Elecraft] K2 - Missing Capacitor

Keith and Edward

FOUND IT!!!!!!!!!!!

My file system broke down. I had the different sized screws in teacups and
the other stuff in saucers and other assorted dishes. I must have been
searching for something else and had put a load of caps into a cup and
placed a saucer on top of it. I moved the saucer and there it was.

I have spent HOURS looking for that wee b*gg*r.

Thanks to both of you for taking the time to help.
