I was considering building or hiring someone to build a KX-1 30/80. To help me with making that decision I thought I’d revisit a 4 or 5 year old tuner kit I had on the shelf to help sort it out. I have a progressive physical disability that has now brought me to the point where it is hard to solder components. I have, in kit form, a partially built LDG Z-11 Automatic Antenna Tuner. It’s two boards, 100 components, 400 solder joints. I’ve inserted 60-70 components, wound toroids, transformer and soldered about 10-15 capacitors with Kester 2% silver solder. Essentially, I've put it together but can't solder it.
I’ve tried emailing three or four people on the Elecraft “Builders for Hire” page but have received emails bounced back as they’re obsolete. I also called the owner of LDG who could/would not offer any assistance but suggested the Elecraft reflector. Is there an Elecraft builder on this listserv who’d be interested in finishing out this kit with me?
