I've been doing electronics for years and there's some pattern matching
you have to do when sorting out parts. Especially caps and resistor
packs. It's not completely automatic like resistors used to be. (I say
used to be because I could swear the colors were clearer when I was
younger. :) )
I'd take all the capacitors and group them together first. Then you know
that you have 12 marked "104" (for example) and then look on the list to
see which capacitor you should have 12 of. Once in a while Elecraft gets
the counts wrong so make sure you double check the values and ask here
if you have to.

for the RF board are a wild blur. I'm sure I have not correctly identified
at least a third of them. Many numbers on the caps are simply not in the
parts list. If anyone has a good way to ID them I would be pleased to hear
from you. Measuring them so far has proved somewhat futile with a simple
DVM with a capacitance measuring function. Several resistor packs have not
had the right part numbers. So far I've been able to ID them by measureing
them.
