[Elecraft] any creative suggestions for a missing part?

2013-10-25 Thread Harry Stone
I'm missing the guts of one of my yellow test point connectors for my K2. The yellow shell is there, but not the metal insert that connects to the probe and is soldered to the board. From experience, missing parts take about a week to arrive here. Anyone have any suggestions on how to work

Piece of about #22 wire, bend the end and wrap it around the wire, solder the straight end into the board? 73 - Mike WA8BXN ---Original Message--- From: Harry Stone Date: 10/25/2013 9:01:26 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] any creative

Henry, If this is a new K2, send an email to pa...@elecraft.com and request a replacement. In the meantime, use whatever substitute means you wish to substitute for the test point at TP3 - that one is used the most seldom. Put the good ones at TP1 and TP2 which will be used more often. 73,
