[Elecraft] K2 led backlight assmbly

[Bruce Beford]

Some time ago, I had a K1 that needed a repair, including the backlight.
Instead of ordering a part from Elecraft, I was able to use two sub-mini
yellow LEDs that I had, and positioned them so they illuminated the edge of
the original diffuser. The same technique could be applied to the K2.

I have since sold that K1 along. So... If you ever see a K1 with an amber
backlight instead of the standard green, that's probably the one I modified.

Anyone got a brand or part number for the k2's led backlight assembly that
goes under the lcd screen?  Not an elecraft part #.  I'm wondering if it is
made in different colors?
