[Elecraft] New synth

[Don Wilhelm]

There have been several posts about the concern for dropping a 
lockwasher when switching synth boards.
You might want to try my technique:
Unscrew the 1/4 inch screws 2/3 to 3/4 of the way.  Then tilt the old 
synth board toward the rear.
Then push the lockwashers as close to the synth board as possible.
Unscrew the screws completely while holding the top of the synth board 
toward the rear.
Then lift the synth board upward and out of the K3.
No dropped lockwashers.
