[Elecraft] Elecraft K2 SN 01324 Front Panel Switch Question

[Andy GM0NWI]

Guy's

Can someone "put my mind at rest"....or ....."ring LOUD alarm
bells"...whatever's appropriate...

This morning, I have started the K2's Front Panel Assembly...which now,
brings me to the "switches"... for the controls...

I have "cheated" ever so slightly, to "try to see through the mist ever so
slightly better"...where I actually put the board "inside" the front panel,
to give me an idea of where the controls on the board are situated...Don't
Worry..!!  I took the board out again before soldering assembly started..!!

I have a "discrepency" with ....S7.....on the board....  When looking at
"my" picture on the manual of the rig, the control "seems" to be a "rotary"
type thing, and NOT a "push-button"....am I looking at this correctly..??
Therefore my ??  is... does indeed one of the "push-button" componants
ACTUALLY go there..."clear
as water" I know, just want to make sure.. There may be a "typical" design
reason for this...not sure...but to me I think there should be a "rotary
pot" in there...

Also...why in S7 is there a "componant hole" situated underneath where the
"pushbutton" switch "might" go...obviously NOT got to that part in the
manual yet,...but wanted to ask...  I seem to be a push switch and cover
down also...will need to check the remaing zip bags I have with componants
in them....

Pardon my ignorance guy's..... And "Thanks In Advance" as they say....this
"Smelting Solder" sure is fun..!!

Tom N0SS...if you're reading this...will get a couple of files off to you in
the next day or so, with the "old" and "new" resistance findings of the
first board...hang in there...I am..!!
