[Elecraft] K2 , R116 alternative ?

[Don Brown]

Hi

Back when this mod first came out I did not have the 1/8 watt resistor for the beta test so I used a 1 meg 1/4 watt in its place. This will work if you remove enough of the rubber bumper to allow the resister to set low enough so it does not contact the bottom cover. Also when you remove the square of masking tape from the heatsink save it to stick on the bottom cover to insulate the resistor and toroid.

  I'm in UK and missing R116 ( the 1/8w BFO retaining R ) from the 
  K2 kit. Anyone recomend an alternative means of fixing the BFO 
  coil without it ?. I have no suitable 1/8w resistors in stock.
