[Elecraft] K1 #2999 finished- small issue

[Don Wilhelm]

  Do you have the jumper on the 3 pin header near the BNC jack placed 
correctly?  It should be on the KAT1 position if the KAT1 is installed 
or in the K1 position without the KAT1.
If it is not placed correctly, the power control will not be correct and 
the display will show zero power (actually it will read 0.1).

If the jumper is correct, and you still have problems, check the two 1% 
resistors on the bottom of the board near the BNC jack (in the corner of 
the RF Board).
