[NLRS] 10 GHz

Probably 330 uF, not pF ?   

Yup, been there, done that.  My very first kit, built when I was knee high to a grass hopper, was a Heathkit HW100.  I soldered one end of a low level RF drive coax in the wrong through-hole on the PCB, missed the right hole by about 1/4", and thus I started on a long career of learning trouble shooting skills that has served me well in all aspects of life.  Build, test, trouble shoot, repeat.

Looking forward to working you on 10368 MHz Joe.

Unbelievable are the only words I can come up with.  When I built my 
ransverter, I some how installed the 330 pF capacitor which energizes the T/R 
elay in the wrong spot.  Once I properly installed the capacitor, my relay came 
o life!  I feel so dumb....  
Thanks for all the advice from members on the list....
