[Elecraft] What have I gotten myself into???

[Tom McCulloch]

It took me about 80 to 100 hours - spread over 6 to 9 months -- but that 
was just my own pace...if I would have done it in 6 to nine weeks it 
undoubtedly would have gone quicker.  I took my time and enjoyed it.

Lots of guys on this list can offer lots of top notch advice based on 
their own experiences -- my 2 cents is as follows:  I like to check each 
solder connection to make sure I don't have a cold solder joint or put 
the lead in the wrong hole -- so to facilitate this I made a photocopy 
of each of the PC boards so I could easily check the traces...If 6,000 
guys built a K2 (what s/n are they up to anyway?), you'll get 6,000 
building different tips -- and they'll all be good!  This is a fun kit 
to build and this list list is a great resource---have fun
