My antecdoctal evidence says it worked for me, both on the initial build and on the removal and re-installation of the DSP board after upgrade.

Perhaps Elecraft could publish what it considers to be minimum requirements, but I'd be willing to bet a cold 807 that because of liability issues, they'd go for the high-end specs. 73, Mike NF4L David Christ wrote: > So the question becomes does it work well enough for assembling > Elecraft kits even though it does not meet industry specs.
