[Elecraft] K2 Front Board and the Rework mic adapter

[Don Wilhelm]

  Ed,

Before you mount the metalwork to the front panel board, it is time to 
install the components from your KSB2 option to that board.  The KSB2 
parts list will indicated the parts to go on the front panel board.
After those parts are added, the Mic Adapter can be assembled and 
installed at any time - I would wait until you have finished with the 
Control Board and the first Alignment and Test section.  Then you can 
easily add the IMA assembly.  It plugs onto the K2 microphone 
configuration header with no soldering there, but there is assembly for 
the IMA itself.  The IMA instructions have notes regarding clearances 
from a capacitor on the RF board and you should check the fit between 
the Front panel and the control board, so both should be present when 
you install the IMA.

73,
