It's not a show stopper.
It just helps you provide a little extra pressure as you push the FP to
the RF board. It's nylon, it doesn't make a connection so there's no
apparent impact to the circuit.
I didn't have the stand off either in my kit SN 2105. I managed to use my
finger to push the DSP board (tight squeeze) as I sandwiched the FP+DSP
onto the RF board. You have to be careful not to flex the boards.
It'll go. The connectors on the RF board to the FP will mate easier than
you think.
Be careful, but it's not a show stopper.
Of course, Elecraft may have a different answer...

I'm missing one lousy part -- a 5/8" nylon standoff that gets mounted on the
DSP board (assembly errata E-7, item 3) to provide some spacing from the
front panel board.
While I wait for Elecraft to see my email on Monday and send the part, anyone
know if this is a show stopper, or if I can proceed and come back around and
install this after the fact?
Thanks ... Grant/NQ5T
