[Elecraft] UnPCBs (Rework Eliminators) question

Bruce,

I suggest that you download the manuals (or use your existing ones) for each
option and review the installation steps.  The parts lists also show the
part numbers for the headers and standoffs and other parts required.  The
'short' list is as follows:
K160RX - header, standoff and 3 capacitors
KNB2 - header, standoff, 1 resistor
KSB2 - 3 headers, standoff plus parts for the Front Panel board - mic config
header, 5 capacitors, 1 transistor, 1 resistor and 1 R-pack
KAF2 or KDSP2 - 2 headers.

I cannot recommend putting on the RF Board parts for the K60XV until you are
ready to actually install that option because the VFO Range Selection
mechanism is modified although you may want to install the 2 headers, but I
see no gain in doing so because the K2 heat sink must be removed to install
the K60XV and adding the headers at that time is just another easy step.

73,
Don W3FPR
