Ed, Congratulations, and enjoy building it. Follow the instructions "to the letter" and do a good job of soldering -- it will work and serve you well.
Be aware that many plastics can gather static charges, so don't put active devices (ICs, transistors, diodes, etc) in them - if the part is shipped in black foam or the transistors in an anti-static bag (the pink ones), leave it there until you are ready to use it. - Alternately, you can remove the socket from the black foam and use the space to stick the transistors into the foam. 73, Don W3FPR On 2/8/2011 2:21 PM, EMD wrote: > Elecrafters, > > Okay K2 #7109 was delivered today.
