control board construction

Dennis Vavra
I need some clarification for the installation of a "shorting jumper" for part P7 on the control board. the instructions are on page 17, right-hand column, 3rd step down.
Do  I solder a piece of wire btwn the two right hand pins of P7,  and if so, exactly where? During my attempt at installation, I damaged part P7, also damaged part P5
with my soldering iron so I will have to order two new parts Monday. I am concerned as to the state of the PCB board now because much of the plating at P7 and P5
was removed/damaged. wonder how this will pan out during testing. any suggestions are welcome.  Dennis Vavra AD5LY

There is a small, rectangular, black plastic jumper with 2 holes in it.  You
slide that over the indicated pins of P7.  It is the easiest of the jumpers
to place.  Look for that little, black mystery part.  There is a pic of it
in appendix A - page 4, next to the last item.

Good Luck and go slow

Dennis,

That jumper is one just like those used on computer headers.  One was
included in your kit.  A picture of it can be found on page 4 of Appendix A
in the manual.  Just push it onto the header pins.
