K2 15K Resistor

Building my K2 serial #6397. The instructions said use a 15K resistor to do a mod in the AGC circuit per an application note. It promised an extra resistor was included in the K2 kit for this. I did the mod per the app note, but find I now am short a 15K resistor for the RF board. My question: I have lots of bags of K2 accessories unbuilt yet. Any chance somebody with a central database knows if there is a 15K resistor in an accessory kit that I could borrow and replace later? I know I don't have such a resistor in my junk cupboard.Murray VA1CQ

Re: K2 15K Resistor

Not trying to be a smarty, but take a quick look at list of components in each “accessory” building guide.

Murry, in rf bag 2 should be that 15k.

Re: K2 15K Resistor

Barry,

There was one 15K resistor in the two RF bags. But one is required for
building the RF board and one is required for the AGC modification.
