[Elecraft] [K1] Build Question

[Don Wilhelm]

Paul,

Yes, do borrow from the RF board parts list.  The parts are the same, 
and the *real* part number is E580006 - E580010 does not appear in the 
"official" list of part numbers that I have.  Request a replacement 
2N4124 PN E580006 from parts at elecraft.com.
Sorry for the confusion, and I am surprised that this inconsistency has 
not been identified before - it has been there for a long time..

Ron, if you have control of the K1 manual, the RF board part number 
should be changed.  If you do not have control, please pass this 
information along to whomever controls the document.

73,
Don w3FPR
