Hi Guys, built my K1 about 4 years ago and still performing like new, but now on with my K2 serial No. 6563. I have a few queries on the LCD/backlight installation. I think I understand the manual/errata but just want to make sure since I have seen a few postings on this issue.
My backlight assembly has a very loose fitting label on the underside which covers the whole surface and has text on it (part Nos etc) The top side has a thin plastic film which again covers the whole surface. Question: The manual says do not remove the backing from either side of the diffuser. Does this mean just during installation or not at all. My LCD display component has a film on the front glass which according to the manual is peeled off later in construction, is this correct. On the rear side there is a plastic film (silvery grey) stuck to the glass. There are no lines on it (mentioned in the errata). Do I remove this film? Apologies if this has already been covered in previous posts. Really enjoying the build and has coincided with an injury to my Achilles tendon (heel) which has put me off work for 10 weeks in a plaster cast so plenty of time for K2 build! Thanks guys 73s Martin M0KWV K1 1534 K2 6563 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
