[Elecraft] K2: Number of turns on T3: text and photo disagree

Hi, David:

T3 has 5 bifilar turns as shown in Figure 67 of page 71 of the Rev G manual.
That's a very old photograph (Figure 8 Appendix D) that appears to have been
left over from the K2 beta test days almost a decade ago! It's in my 2000
vintage K2 manual too, even though T3 was already a 5 turn transformer by
then. 

Thanks for mentioning it. It goes on the "fix that!" list <G>.

I've wound T3 with 5 turns, but I found I had a lot of wire left over 
and examination of the photographs in the manual suggest that the T3 in 
the specimen assembly has 10 or 11 turns.  Is 5 turns correct?
