[Elecraft] [K2] #6936: IF AGC Amp SMT1 missing from RF board inventory check

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Hi, Brian.

Always go through ALL the components at the beginning.  There should
be no unopened, un-inventoried envelopes when you start construction.
Personally, I've never seen loose components outside envelopes from
Elecraft.  You could have an entire envelope that got moved somehow.
That would be caught by missing an envelope's worth of stuff.  That
said...

Nobody at Elecraft will be bothered that you did not search the Queen
Mary with a magnifying glass before you got in touch.  Particularly
since you are across the pond, get the process started early.  The
post sometimes puts irritating delays on stuff.  If there is a
workaround for you to let you get started anyway, based on the part
you are missing, they will tell you.

73, Guy.
