Even a perfectionist can screw up now and then, right? I installed P1, a 20 pin male, right angle pin connector, to the RF board, on the FRONT side, when the instructions clearly state “Position 20-pin male right-angle connector P1 on the bottom of the board.” Ok, I can deal with the whoop-see, just DE solder, pull it out, and install a new right-angle connector. O’boy, DE solder trick didn’t go so well, P1 ended up in pieces.
No problem, I have other right-angle pin connectors, just use them! But, after installing, the replacements are about 1/16” shorter in length, and don’t go into J1 as far. Hello Huston, NOW we have a problem! The front panel is NOT getting any power! I need a new P1, part # E620029. Other than that, the build is going great! Do I need to send an email to Elecraft parts department? Comments are appreciated! Be kind, please, Thanks! Don, KE0PVQ (thinking about a vanity call sign, suggestions?)
