Everyone,
I am sending this to the forum as well as Elecraft support for everyone's information.
After receiving and assembling the W2 I decided to look inside the 1-2000 HF head to see what is there. Clearly impressed I reinstalled
the cover to the head and hooked it up to the station. when I first applied RF to the W2 head I had no power indication. The main unit booted up fine and all cables were properly connect according to the diagram on the case of the sensor. I decided to look again inside the sensor head and discovered that the removable part of the sensor head case had the label which could be reinstalled backward (which I did). I reassembled the sensor head case and hooked it up correctly and everything worked fine.
Elecraft, I would suggest that on future sensor head units the label should be placed on the outer shell of the case. That way if someone opens it up they cannot disturb the orientation of the label with regard to the internal PC board.
For those of you already owning a W2, I would suggest you mark the outer shell of the case of the sensor head with input and output labels or markings to be sure the removable part of the case is reinstalled properly.
