[Elecraft] monday

[Arthur Delibert]

I have just one bit of advice:  TAKE YOUR TIME.  When I'm expecting a new radio to arrive, I want it so bad I can just about taste it.  When my K2 arrived, it took a lot of control to slow down and make sure I understood what I was doing at each step before I did it.  But it paid off in the end.

  I can hardly wait. My K1-2 (80/40) will be here Monday. I've built 
  several smaller kits like the Rock mite etc. Nothing of this magnatude 
  though. I ordered it Friday after Thanksgiving and it seems like I.ve 
  been waiting forever for it to arrive. Meanwhile hoping to pick up 
  building hints I've monitored this reflector. I've never used the side 
  of a cardboard box but instead a 12" x 12" sheet of styrofoam from the 
  craft store to hold the parts and DVM to check EVERY resistor  and 
  VARIABLE TONE TESTER to check capacitors before mounting them on the 
  pcb. This looks like the place to be should I have QUESTIONS or need a 
  good sharp kick in the motivator [g]. 72/71 de "RC" kc5wa
