'Normally' being the key word here. Apparently they can't keep up at the 
moment.

Case in point: my KX1 that also arrived this week and came with errata 
sheet Rev B5 of Jan 30 2006. Following my own advice, I found errata sheet 
Rev B-6 of April 12 2006 available on the website. And the differences 
aren't trivial!

To Howard, AC4FS: just make sure that before you actually start building, 
you check for new errata. Elecraft is known for its dedication to quality 
and is continuously revising the errata sheets.
And from my own experience: when I received my K2 two years ago I wasn't in 
a position to start building immediately. But I did whip out the manual and 
read it front to back, back to front and probably sideways too. Applied the 
changes mentioned in the errata. It was great pre-fun only to be topped by 
the fun of the building itself. See if you can negotiate this with the wife 
;-)
