Guy's..

Just to let everyone who WILL see my e-mail on the reflector soon from this morning...

To IGNORE...the "plea for help"...! Time has passed today, since posting that e-mail to the reflector... the day is nearing closure... ONCE AGAIN..! My well respected ..."..Elecraft K2 Elmer" ...John Ross GM1BSG..
"saved the day"...!

On inspection of the rig (...a little closer than I had actually done while constructing her early this morning...) it was noticed, ...found... corrected... that I had INDEED...not "mated" the connector pins from one of the boards to the
connector on the "RF Board" quite correctly...!!

sigh..! ....blinks in disbelief..! Yes..! indeed...the whole episode of panic..was for no reason whatsoever... and this was the reason as to my "baby" not turning on and lighting up this morning..!!

I can now say WITH convictions...! that I feel "rather stupid...and small" for overseasing this foresight..!


Hey, Andy, you don't have to feel stupid nor small -- we're not electronics guys (most of us) and we all make pretty basic errors at time. In my case, the K2 was fine, just had to send it to Gary for a bit of toroid swapping -- yup, I had switched two types of cores!

Congratulations of getting your K2 going -- I envy you the assembly experience.
