[Elecraft] Updated schmatics/errata question

Roland,

I strongly suggest that you complete building according to the manual 
supplied with the K2.

After you have completed your K2 and have everything up and running, if you 
want your K2 to be equal to the latest from Elecraft, look on the parts 
ordering portion of the Elecraft website to determine what you need to bring 
it up to current level.  The information about what you need based on your 
K2 serial number is there.

Trying to integrate adding these upgrade mods into a current build of an 
older K2 is an exercise only for those of us who have already built several 
K2s, and even we can become confused at times with the changes.

73,

Hi all,  I'm retracing the steps of a partially built K2 I got for free.  My 
origional schmatics are dated 10/6/02.  I noticed on the latest schmatics 
dated 1/27/04 there are some differences.  For example, just starting here 
but on the control board I noticed that the value of R21 went from 10k to 
270k and a above it RP2 has been replaced with C46 .01.  Should I stick to 
the old plans or should I be replacing these circuits as they come up?
...I should have prefrenced all this by saying I know next to nothing about 
electronics.  Just barely the basics.
And sorry to drone on so, but...When I went to download the latest Errata, I 
noticed it's only one page.  Is there a collection of updates I need to be 
looking at somewhere?  My K2 # is 3090.
Thanks guys!
