Maybe some other K2 builder can help sort out the mixup and tell me if there is a problem:
RFC1, RFC2, RFC12, RFC13 and RFC15 are all nearly the same size except that One of them is a different color. There is no "very small" RFC15. There are five 100uH solenoidals total in my kit: Four 100uH solenoidal are dark brown bodies with BRN-BLK-BRN-GOLD bands. One 100uH solenoidal is the hair bigger, tan body, with BRN-BLK-BRN-GOLD bands. The tan 100uH is just a hair bigger than the other four dark body 100uH. On page 53, step 5: The tan 100uH was chosen as RFC13 before I realized I was also looking for a RFC15 (very small 100uH) on page 54. See picture: http://w7brs.com/k2/rfc13.jpg In this picture, RFC13 is mounted. (the odd ball tan 100uH). Resting on top of the board above it is a representitive of the four dark body 100uH that are nearly the same size to aid in explaining the difference. Notice how close in size? Can I simply proceed with these 100uH, or do I need the subminature RFC15 for the underside step 1 on page 54? Can I just use that dark body 100uH to replace the subminature 100uH? Do I have a mixup that requires a new set of 100uH? Oh by the way, my way of soldering the leads for the PLL board also includes my son's own LEGO radio; just for fun: http://w7brs.com/k2/pll.jpg Any advice on the RFC13/15 question would be appreicated. Reply off-list please and I'll summarize and repost the resolution.
