[Elecraft] K2 #7261 Thermistor board question
I have finished the thermistor board (page 50) and have it inserted ready to solder. The manual says to make sure it is positioned to clear C87 and U6. It looks like I install these on page 52. Should I follow the manual or would it be better to install U6 and C87 first to make sure I have the thermistor board clear of other componets before I solder the 8 wires? 73 Don -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K2-7261-Thermistor-board-question-tp7163381p7163381.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Elecraft] K2 #7261 Thermistor board question
Hi, Don - My experience in building the K2 was definitely to follow the order of the instruction manual to the letter. I was also concerned about the placement of the thermistor board and adjacent components. However, when I was done installing U6 and C87, there turned out to be more than enough room. Have a look at the postings on the blog I maintained during construction ... you might find the text, and especially the pictures, to be helpful.

Great help. great pics. I will go ahead and solder it in. I also had trouble with the tilt stand. It took all my might to bend it inward so it would fit 73 K4YND -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K2-7261-Thermistor-board-question-tp7163381p7163449.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
