Guy's..

I've just completed the above part on my K2 .... All "tests" ....seemed to go according to plan.....
Keepin' my fingers crossed...!  SO..! Should Y'all for me ...!!

My Question...

On completing the "test"(s) up to an around Page 50 "something" in the manual... I proceeded to put my "baby" back together again in preperation for the next part in the manual... Only to find...that when I tried to "mate" the "Front Panel" board, with the "Control Board"...things, don't want to go back together as planned...!

The "problem" I think ...is that now the "RF Board" is more populated with componants, and there is a "tuning can" in componant placement "L34" on the "RF Board"....WHEN ..! I try to "mate" the "Control Board" onto the given connectors,....the screws that hold the 2 "transistors" in position(s) "U5" and "U4" respectivley..protrude out too far from their nuts..thus inhating the placement of the "Control Board" onto the connectors on the "RF Board"...

I (am) ..."sorta" sure that I got this part correct ..way back in the manual... and used the correct screws to hold the transistors on the "Control Board" as was stated....but for some reason I can't help but think that the screws used are either 1... Too Long (i.e not the correct ones to use)....2... Orientated with their "threads" instead of their "heads" on the
"Control Board"....

Can someone please point me in the correct direction of where I might have gone wrong... I've asked advice on this previously and understand what I was told... that was just to turn the screws around so that the "heads" lay on the transistors, from the componant side and protruded out the solder side of the "Control Board"... if this is the case, will I need to do any
reverse stuff with the washers for each transistor...??

Thanks guys for the bandwidth.....
