Actually that's why Elecraft shows three... but _I_ suggested gettin gthe 
3rd one just as a backup in case one of them gets botched during assembly. 
They're kinda 'tender', and difficult to repair if damaged, and the added 
cost of an extra far outweighs having to order a spare (replacement) later.
