[Elecraft] base K2 RF board

[Mike Harris]

There was a time, maybe 8-9 years ago when life was thought to be 
too short for inventories, many just jumped in and got on with it, I 
certainly did.  100% success.

All this chatter about truncated lines is just getting in the way of 
building.  And another thing, real men wind torroids ;-)  Unless you 
have a medical condition or other disability.

Regards,

K2 #1400 + everything except the battery
