K2 - Construction photos? END OF THREAD

stan levandowski
Thanks Don and Alexy.  I have what I need now.  Alexy, your link to
Atsushi's photo log was perfect.  I saw my Control Board version with
inductor L1 as well as the old diode D3 I'll be replacing with a
resistor.  I've put Atsushi's photo log on my favorites bar. I'm all set
now!  Thanks again!

  Stan,

Please resist the temptation to "build by the photos".  Use the
instructions in the manual in the order given and you will get the job
done.  If you want to compare the final result with the photos, then
that is OK, but do not try to use the photos as your "building guide" -
do the manual instructions one step at a time - there is good reason for
that order, d not attempt to defeat it or you are likely to make errors.
As a first step, use the Errata sheet to mark up your manual, then start
at the beginning and one step at a time, work your way to the end.  If
you do that correctly (and in order), and your soldering is good, you
will end up with a working K2.

After you have built your 3rd K2, you might be equipped to skip around a
slight bit if that fits your style, but for the first time, follw the
instructions in the order given.

73,
Don W3FPR
