My worst experience (and most embarrasing!) is that when I got my box of parts for my K2, for some reason I took the bag with the parts for the control board and stuck it in a drawer in my basement. So when I got to that part in the instructions, I could not find it and of course assumed Elecraft had not sent it. I shot a panic'ed email to the parts account and got back a response of 'boy that is very worrisome!' I was looking for something unrelated to the kit in that drawer and immediately saw I had made a huge mistake!

For the record, I have not seen any missing parts, only those I lost in the rug/vacuum cleaner, etc.
