Re: [Elecraft] any creative suggestions for a missing part?
Henry, If this is a new K2, send an email to pa...@elecraft.com and request a replacement. In the meantime, use whatever substitute means you wish to substitute for the test point at TP3 - that one is used the most seldom. Put the good ones at TP1 and TP2 which will be used more often. 73, Don W3FPR On 10/25/2013 9:01 PM, Harry Stone wrote: I'm missing the "guts" of one of my yellow test point connectors for my K2.

Mike I think you read what little mind I have left. ;) I was just sitting here working on it and that's what I'll do. Thanks!

Piece of about #22 wire, bend the end and wrap it around the wire, solder the straight end into the board? 73 - Mike WA8BXN ---Original Message--- From: Harry Stone Date: 10/25/2013 9:01:26 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] any creative suggestions for a missing part?

[Elecraft] any creative suggestions for a missing part?
I'm missing the "guts" of one of my yellow test point connectors for my K2. The yellow shell is there, but not the metal insert that connects to the probe and is soldered to the board. >From experience, missing parts take about a week to arrive here. Anyone have any suggestions on how to work around this so I don't lose more time waiting on parts? Thanks! harry KD0NFY ps - I know the best suggestion is for me to inventory the parts I have left so I don't have to wait again, and I'm doing that now. -- Have old memories and young hopes. __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
