Folks, Not quite true - I put the tiny LED in the SPOT button, I figure its function is more intuitive in that position. If you want to know how to put the LED in the button keycap, get Jerry Henshaw's original info from Tom's website http://www.n0ss.net/kr5l_led_cw_tuning_ind.pdf, which will tell you how to mount it in the LOCK/RATE button - it fits in the SPOT button in a similar manner, and could also be used for the buttons of the K1 and KX1 if you don't want to drill a hole in the case. Restoring to original appearance is a simple matter of replacing the keycap. 73, Don W3FPR _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
