Hi Patrick, I just finished my kit and ran into the same issue. I pretty much ignored the colours they specified and went with the markings on the component instead. Having a good magnifier helps a lot with that though. :)
Enjoy the kit. I got mine finished up last weekend and have had a number of great QSOs with it. I'm finding I greatly prefer it to the FT-950 for CW. I only use the other rig when I need a bit more power (i.e. rarely.) or for digi modes. 73, -- Sean - VA5LF On 03/19/2010 10:12 AM, Patrick Bourgeois wrote: > > Hello guys was doing an inventory of my K2 kit when I ran into I suppose a > typo on the part list.
