I personally never do the resistance checks, or the parts counts, the only
thing I ever do is check the pa finals are not shorted after working on the
K2.
I have built two K2's, lots of options for them, a K1, and have yet to be
short a part, or have a problem other than one unsoldered joint on a K2
relay.
(at 50, my vision has really gotten bad).
I am really amazed that I have not had a single missing part, or even one
bad part, you would think some are bound to get in the system, but no....
The Elecraft instruction books are so good, even though I rush through and
build things really fast, (K2 in under 3 days) they work when I am done.
I wont recommend NOT doing the checks, I suppose you could fry a lot of
parts, but I wonder what percentage of builders do the checks...
