Jean-Francois Joly VA2JFJ I too built my K2 # 5422, 2 months ago. It had been a while since my previous "Heathkit" kit building experiences.
Tools you will want to acquire: - good SMALL flush-cutting cutters - Kester lower-rosin SOLDER, like SN63PB37 - hand Magnifying Glass - "Solder Sucker" tool, cheap - digital MultiMeter (like $27 us) - an ANTI-STATIC MAT, and Wrist Strap ($15 us) - small pocket knife, fine screwdriver - smaller phillips head screwdriver - some de-solder wick (works poorly) - needle nose pliers, with rubber band I found that working in 2 hour or less periods, helped me from making any careless mistakes. Elecraft, and this message mail board, will help you complete a successful K2. Great bunch of people! Thanks, 73's Fred, N3CSY (formerly of Chinon, Loire, 1958) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
