[Elecraft] Front panel standoff question

[David Dietrich]

Hi Everybody!

I am finishing the assembly of my K2's front panel, and I installed the two standoffs adjacent to the mic connector.  Since they are on top of the board, I notice that they are not going to be attached to anything. Are they just spacers for the front panel PC board and chassis piece so the board is not flexed too much when a mic is removed?

Thanks,

David
