K2 S/N 5,960 Thermistor Assembly Replacement

KEN-101
Hello All,

I must not have bent the leads on the thermistor board enough coming out of the board, since after soldering it in, there wasn't enough room for one side of U6, I think it was.

Anyway, I had to remove it and would rather replace it entirely. Looking at the WEB site, the one I see, part number E850138, is slightly different in parts than the one that came with this kit, which was E850146.

Dose anyone know if E50138 work?


Thanks, Ken W2GIW.

Ken,

E850138 will contain the parts you want, but it also has a PLL crystal.
Unless you want the crystal too, get E850146 which is the thermistor
board and its components.
Call or email Scott and he should be able to get the package to you.

OTOH, it should be an easy matter to remove the 8 wires and install new
ones - that board does not have thru-plated holes, so unsoldering from
those pads should not be a problem.  Yes, they must be bent over sharply
next to the board.
