Good morning everyone. I have finished the basic CW version and all my checks and alignments are good. The question I do have is, the capacitors (101) tan in color, have the legs bend in a zigzag pattern. When I tried to straighten them I ended up cracking the ceramic insulation on them. So I replaced them and installed all of them without straightening the legs. That of course put them a bit tall on the board. The manual states to install all components as close to the board as possible, to avoid stray RF coupling on the board. Do you all think the way I installed them is going to be an issue? And how would I be able to tell if it is a issue?
Thank you for all the help I have received so far from this group. 73 James, KJ4KEM ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
