Jack,

Believe the DMM and refrain from using the analog ohmmeter because it apparently uses a high enough voltage for resistance measurements that it can turn on solid state devices and may even damage them.

Hi folks

Just building my K2. Got as far as the first resistance checks on the RF board (page 38)

All values test correct but one.

The right end of R115 is meant to be >500 ohms to earth.
With an analogue meter it gives 2 ohms.
With a DMM on auto range it flashes between ranges wildly. But on manual range it gives 10.2 Kohms.

Anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks
Jack
