[Elecraft] KRX3 Mounting Problem

[Johnny Siu]

Hi Ken,

You can just refer back to the inventory list in p.7-9 of your KRX3 assembl=
y manual.  In the list, the dimensions of the hardwares are given.

In the past, a wrong size standoff was given to my KNB2.

Just check the inventory list first, if there are wrong parts, simply send =
elecraft an email and they will send you the replacement right the way.

cheers,

Johnny Siu VR2XMC
K3# 0046 and many K2s
