After having so much fun building my K1, I decided to go for it and
ordered a K2, which arrived yesterday.
The fun started last night after work. I got as far as the first
alignment and test - it was a happy moment when the "Elecraft" came
up on the display. Tonight I'll start the assembly stage 2.
I have a question though about the fold-out stand thing. I was able
- with some difficulty - to get the two oval feet installed with the
bail thing in between them, but there was a lot of tension on it and
one of the oval feet looks to be a little crooked. The tension is
also enough that the whole bottom plate seems to be a little bit
bowed. It's sort of straightened out when the 6 screws are holding
it to the RF board though.
Is this normal, or does that suggest I used too much force to get the
bail / feet installed? Also, is there a trick to getting that
installed?
Thanks, and 73!
