[Elecraft] [K2] L33 (BFO torrid) & R116 (5.1Mohm 0.125W) mishap

[michael taylor]

I had a small mishap with my wire cutters while trimming the L33 (BFO
pre-wound torrid) and R116 (5.1Mohm 1/8 W) resistor's leads. As I went
to trim the fine wire lead of the L33 I accidentally also cut a large
chunk out of one of R116's leads.

I'm wondering if I should try to "patch" R116's lead or admit the
mistake and order a replacement L33 pre-wound torrid and R116
resistor? The problem is since I have trimmed both hair-fine leads of
L33, I'm not certain I can re-solder the leads again in a "do-over" if
I simply tried to replace the one-legged resistor.
