[Elecraft] See if it works this time...

All,

   I posted this yesterday, but somehow it didn't
make it to the list:

------------ snip -------------------
K2 SSB Adapter....

...Is in hand.  Looks like quite a little project.  The workbench is 
cleared off, soldering iron
loaded with its smallest tip, Panavise in place & grounded, anti-static 
strap hooked up.

....Lemme at it!

------------- endsnip -------------------

    Am about halfway through stuffing the circuit board.  Installed most 
of the caps, ICs, resistors.
A few parts, I put off installing because they are at the very edge of 
the card, and would prevent me from
holding it in the Panavise.  Each part that I did not install, I put a 
big circle around in the manual.  When everything else is stuffed, I'll 
go back and install those.

    One of the resistors went *SPOING* and flew across the garage.  
Luckily, I have complete stock of all the common values of jelly-bean 
1/4W resistors.

    I shouldn't have to do much to the base K2, because it already had 
the SSB installed - somebody had removed it and reinstalled the bridging 
cap.  I will
however need to pull the control board and pull a couple of jumpers off 
the microphone jumpers array - that will be my excuse to treat the 
control board to a good scrub with alcohol.
