Re: [Elecraft] K2 - Extra capacitor 2.7C

Hello David, In professional Morse I have often heard R used as a . (dot) in number notation. Hence 2R7 on a capacitor is most likely 2.7 pF. 73, Roelof Bakker, pa0rdt -- Mijn Postvak In wordt beschermd door SPAMfighter. 305 spam-mails zijn er tot op heden geblokkeerd. Download de gratis

[Elecraft] K2 - Extra capacitor 2.7C

2007-08-30 Thread JT Croteau
I just installed the last of the capacitors into the RF board. I happen to have a couple extra caps but I am also missing one cap. The missing cap is the 3.3 pF cap for C22 on the RF board. One of the extra caps is labeled 2.7C. I did a search of the PDF manual and cannot find a 2.7 cap

Ok, this has been resolved. Thanks for all replies. It has been pointed out to me that 2R7 is 2.7. I still need to let Elecraft know about the typo in the Rev. G manual. -- JT Croteau, N1ESE - Manchester, NH ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to:

2R7 is 2.7.The R is used as a decimal point. Don K7FJ My parts list, along with the PDF version, says the value of C22 is pF). Something has obviously been cutoff. However, the Description for C22 reads NPO, 2R7, 3, 3.3, or 3R3. No reference to 2.7 at all.
