[Elecraft] Double Solder each one !

[Roger Stein]

For those who like numbers.....
A basic K2 Rev F manual has a parts count of 857....ah you can see
where this is going!

So, Alan has handled 69,417 parts after completion of #81.

I kept the packaged wire count separate, 47,223 inches or 3,935 feet 3"......!!!

I will let someone else figure the number of actual solder points... (N0SS??)

Hi all:

I have built 80 K2's and am working on #81 now.  I check each component with
a magnifying glass if there is any question, insert it and solder it.  Then
I clip the leads, and solder it again.  Then inspect each connection.  I do
have a problem from time to time, but so far not with my soldering.  Usually
my problems are errors in selecting components or a bad component.
