[Elecraft] Picked up this partially built K2

[Roland]

I picked up this partially built K2 from a friend who decided it wasn't his cup of tea.  First thing I tried to do was follow along the manual and do the resistance checks on the completed control panel and front panel.These test were already done and the results written down, I was just trying to repeat the steps to see if I was on the right track.  I'm not getting anything on some things and others look fine.  My cheapy multimeter could be the problem.  I'll tell you all right up front that I've never done anything like this before.  Before I stuff it back in the box it came in and put it in the attic forever, I thought I'd give this list a try (cry?) for help.  I always wanted to do this type of thing and have already invested in a soldering station and big magnifing light among other do-dads, mostly for this project.  Kinda hoping to break out of just being a button pusher from stuff off the shelf.  I know there has got to be some of you guys shaking your heads out there... 
Thanks,
