I was doing some testing on my K2 this afternoon, and
it seems I've let the smoke out of R82 on the RF
board. I think the ground probe of my DMM possibly
shorted one end of it to ground, and the other end is
at 12v. Let's see that would mean about 2/3A current.
Anyway, the resistor itself looks burnt, but
amazingly still measures 18 ohms. I didn't notice any
other visible damage, and the receiver still seems to
work ok. Anyone have any further ideas of areas or
components I need to check for damage and/or improper
function due to this mishap? Thanks.
