I'm really sorry your K2-build didn't go well. If you really want to
trash it, I'll pay the postage, send it to me. :-) There are a number
of builders on this list, there's a compendium of them on the Elecraft
web site [or was], and they range from building a kit from opening the
boxes to finishing kits half-built.
I really recommend you investigate that, I love my K2 [4398], and it has
gotten a lot of field use and on summits. It's a great little radio you
can hold in one hand with amazing operating characteristics.

I bought the Elecraft K2 # 7615.
I'm just wondering if I could send the unit back and just cut my losses on
it. I have it assembled except for the SSB Module. For the past couple of
months I have been trying to align the unit. Every single step of the
process has been a battle. I have received help from the Elecraft Email
subscription but I am just tired of fighting with it. I have gone over all
of the solder point and made sure that they are good along with the
components being inserted correctly, I also had electronic engineers go
over it. I just can't get it to work. I can get it to generate a tone for
the tone generator test but that is as far as I can get. I'm at the point
that if I can't get Elecraft to look at it, then I'm just going to dump it
in the trash and sign my thousand bucks that I have invested in it as a
loss and try to save up for another radio. I don't know what else to do. I
am really tired of fighting with it and it has become and object of
frustration instead of a way to communicate with the world.
Please Help
