Hi Guys,

Thanks for the replies from all of you, Tom N0SS, Don W3FPR and Bob N7XY.
I thought that different gauges would be in use, especially when I 
saw how small RFC 1 and 2 are in the KSB2 module :) At first I 
thought they were washers when I was sorting the parts out and doing 
the checklist :)
I have used the red and green enamel supplied with each module, 
keeping what's left over as spares.
Tomorrow RFC 1 and 2 and the two transformers will be added to the 
SSB board, Then I'll get started on the RS232 board as I can't use a 
rig now without CAT control, once you start to use CAT control, you 
just can't imagine controlling a rig any other way :)
