RE: [Elecraft] Attaching sides to K2 RF board
Hi Jeff, I'm about 10 pages ahead of you in building my K2. Sounds like you have the 2-D fasteners in the wrong spot(s). If you have the side (left or right) laying on the table with the inside surface facing up and the two "bare" areas toward you, the 2-D fasteners attach to the holes at the top left (or right) corner and the right (or left) side. I hope this makes sense. If not, let me know and I'll send you a picture.

Attached two 2-D fasteners to one bare area and one "unbare" area as per locations pictured on page 38. Yet when I went to attach the sides to the RF board, the only holes that fit are the "bare" ones, one of which I've attached a 2-D fastener to. Have I confused left with right sides and attached the fasteners to one of the bare areas in error? i.e. do the formerly masked areas go on the bottom, not the top? Sorry to be so dense, but the manual is really unclear here, unless the stippled areas in the figures are the bare areas.

RE: [Elecraft] Attaching sides to K2 RF board
Take a look at the pictures at my Web site and see if that helps: http://www.craigr.com/coppermine/thumbnails.php?album=32 There's one picture for each page in the manual, generally taken at the end of the tasks for that page. The one for page 39 looks like it might help.

RE: [Elecraft] Attaching sides to K2 RF board
Jeff, Yes, the long rectangular bare area (previously masked) will go at the bottom. The other mouning holes may (or may not be) masked, but if masked they will be short rectangular areas. Remove the 2D connector from the bare area, then look at the diagrams carefully. The words in the paragraph above the diagrams use the 'bare areas' only as an indicator that the panels are oriented correctly - and is shown as the long rectangular light shaded area in the diagrams - the 2D connectors are to be positioned as shown by the dark shaded areas, there will be one at the top corner (above the bare area) and the other will be at the back - centered vertically. The 2D connectors that are already fitted to the RF Board will attach to the bare area when you get everything together. 73, Don W3FPR > -Original Message- > > Can't figure out where I went wrong here.
