[Elecraft] [K2] VCO Not Oscillating

[Johnny Siu]

We did make similar mistakes throught out our hobby.  Wrong parts, wrong components at wrong places are always the problems.

Even I built the 10th K2, I still made mistakes.

Hey,

I wanted to let you guys know that the root cause has been found.  I asked
Don to look at the radio and the root cause was that I had misplaced a 1pF
cap at C68 which was labeled 1D.  C68 was supposed to be 10pF.  It was a
stupid construction mistake after all.  Perhaps this can serve as a nice
data point for anyone else building the K2 that has a similar problem.  I
will be getting the radio back soon and hope to finish the kit without
incident.

Thanks,
Joseph KI4ITG
