[Elecraft] K2 RFC15?

[Don Wilhelm]

Jerry,

Different manufacturers use different body colors - the Elecraft manuals 
are slowly being scrubbed to eliminate any references to body colors as 
identifying markings - the only real markings that count are the color 
coded bands.

So yes, leave RFC13 as is and use one of the other 100 uH chokes at RFC15.
