Jim,
	I am only speaking from my experience and this may be a childish
statement from your point of view, and I am not trying to be smart or
anything like that, but be sure and look at both sides of the capacitors.
Some of them have numbers on both sides. I got in a hurry when doing my
inventory and could not find a couple of capacitors because I made this
mistake. But then again, that's me. I'm sure you are already aware of this
but I thought I would mention it.
	I actually called Elecraft and told them I was missing a couple of
caps because of this. I had egg on my face when I realized what I had done.
The plus side is that I had a couple of caps for my junk box. Hi Hi

for the RF board are a wild blur.  I'm sure I have not correctly identified
at least a third of them.  Many numbers on the caps are simply not in the
parts list.  If anyone has a good way to ID them I would be pleased to hear
from you.  Measuring them so far has proved somewhat futile with a simple
DVM with a capacitance measuring function.  Several resistor packs have not
had the right part numbers.  So far I've been able to ID them by measureing
them.

My impression so far is that there are components of
some of the accessories to be installed on the three
main boards but when and sometimes how is not always
clear.
