[Elecraft] K2 Assembly problem/Info 080 message

[Tom Fuller]

Hello, I am assembling my Elecraft K2 Radio (serial # 7421) , I made it up to
page 43 of the manual, earlier today I was able to get the info 201 to show
on display as on page 43 and frequencies showed ok/bands changed on display
ok also but with info 080 message shown , the tuning dial did not seem to be
working too well...In order to troubleshoot it, I began to re-solder all the
connections but now the frequencies don't display anymore-just some garbled
numbers show and also I am still getting an error 080 message/low battery
message  and I noticed the part U1 on the RF board is hot to touch. I have
gone thru the troubleshooting steps but don't want to go past page 44 steps
because I want to get the frequency display to work again and removed the
info 080 message before I move on... does anyone have any additional
troubleshooting steps?

thanks and 73,

KE4QCM
