K2 numbers and locations I would like to say that K23354 now has a new set

FWIW I got the new PA
Hi Guys,
Due to my clumsiness in removing my blown finals I have managed
to damage the PCB of my K2. I managed to remove half of the land for the
Base of Q7 on the top of the PCB, and slightly lifted the land for the

Hello everyone,
During the alignment of the Top Band option of my K2 I did a stupid thing

If you read the manual for the K2 and find the section which discusses
building the display board you will find that you can mount some of the
display parts for the KSB2 when you build the Display board...I started
