[Elecraft] K1 -- orientation of C13 and C20?

[Don Wilhelm]

Kathy,

I am building a K1 here too and just stumbled across this same problem.  It
seems like the silk-screen does not stick on the new ROHS compliant boards
(or something like that - the flats used to be in the silkscreen).

Put the flat side toward the back of the K1 board - if you have any doubts
obaut orientation and need a 'picture' there is the component placement
drawing in the back of the manual.

73,
Don W3FPR
