RC, The resistance from the cathode of D2 or D3 to ground with S1 on will depend a lot on your meter and the polorization of its leads. To convince yourself all is OK, try the reading at the open contact of Sw (should be zero ohms, then on the ends of R23 (one end shoudl be zero and the other end should be 470 ohms, then at the legs of D1 - one side shoudl be 470 ohms and the other side should be the same as you see at the D2/D3 cathodes. If all things are not that way, then you have something connected wrong or a bad solder connection.
The schematic is easy to follow for this portion of the checks, look in the upper right corner for D2/D3 and follow the path down the page through D1 and R23 and S1. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of RC > Sent: Sunday, February 18, 2007 2:57 PM > To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Subject: [Elecraft] KX1 page 26 > > > Assembly Part 1 complete > resistance checks completed > <http://www.kc5wa.us/kx1/1727-05.jpg> > infinity readings (although correct ) > for banded end of D2 or D3 with > S1 on or off does not feel right? > > RC kc5wa > _______________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > You must be a subscriber to post to the list. > Subscriber Info (Addr.
