[Elecraft] K2 - K2PAKIT install?

[Ross Primrose]

Thanks Don and everyone else who replied. I'd already figured out it 
must be a replacement R50 from looking at the schematics. It's a higher 
power unit than the one already in there, so I replaced it w/o even 
checking if the one in there was good.
