Re: [Elecraft] Leftover parts after KX3 build???

2012-10-10 Thread VE3WDM
Good morning Don, Thanks for the reply and the only reason alarm bells went
off regarding these washers there were only 2 shipped and then seemed a
little oversized and unique. So that made me wonder if they were to go
somewhere on the KX3 build or not. It was not like there was 6 of them and 2
left over but just 2 came and they were never used. 
Mike

Mike,

It is not unusual to find a few extra pieces of small hardware items in 
an Elecraft kit.  It is better to have a couple left over than to have 
one short!

The hardware is weighed rather than counted, so on lightweight pieces, 
one has to apply a small 'fudge factor' to assure that the number packed 
will be sufficient.  That is not a problem with pieces that weigh more.

73,
Don W3FPR

[Elecraft] Leftover parts after KX3 build???

2012-10-09 Thread Mike Weir

After completing the KX3 serial 1990 I have the two number 4 washers leftover. 
They are on page A4 of the assembly  manual sixth down from the top. I did a 
search in the PDF manual for them and the only result that comes back is page 
A4 where they are listed as a part. MikeVE3WDM
