I am in the middle of installing the KRX3 in my K3/100 (s/n 1152), and have bumped into a "stopper".
I am at the point of re-mounting the main DSP board to the front panel board. I find that there is a metal standoff mounted on the front panel board near J31 which is in the place that the newly-mounted nylon standoff (same length) is mounted on the Main DSP board. This standoff is attached to the Main DSP board in the KRX3 instructions at the top of page 17. Has anyone else run into this? Can I remove the nylon standoff from the Main DSP board and leave the metal standoff on the Front Panel board in it's place? It looks like there are some components on the Main DSP board near where the top of the metal standoff will rest. I **really** don't want to remove the front panel board from the front panel assembly to remove the metal standoff, especially without explicit instructions. I'm sure that there are a screw and lock washer behind the between the board and the front panel, so unscrewing the standoff is a crapshoot of whether the parts behind will come out with some shaking. I've placed a photo of the metal standoff on the Front Panel board online at: http://www.k8nd.com/FrontPanelStandoff_3489.jpg 73, Jeff K8ND _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
