K2 #6358 just passed all the steps in Alignment and Test Part 1.

No smoke was released and after a brief detour to figure out why
segment 10 of the s-meter wouldn't light (pin 1 of the led array
wasn't soldered!) all tests passed.

Missing pin 1 was a real shock to me since I triple checked my
soldering.  Also, I haven't been working when I am tired and haven't
worked more than about 2 hours (with breaks) at any one sitting.

I guess Don's advice to:
1.  Check your soldering
2.  Check your soldering
3.  Check your soldering

wasn't enough for me.  It took 4 times!
