[Elecraft] My New AF-1

[Ken Alexander]

Picked up my AF-1 at the post office today.  Can't wait to get to it, but I have two projects ahead of it, both Softrock receiver kits for an SWL friend and I.

Note to Eric & Wayne - Thank you for pre-installing the surface mount components on your boards for us!  I'm using the finest tip available for my iron (needle sharp) and the finest solder I can find and I still feel like I'm using a sledgehammer to kill a fly!  

I'm slowly getting better at it, and I really hope this thing works when I'm finished, not the sort of thing I have to worry about when I build an Elecraft kit!

73,
