Install the capacitors listed below, which are all located on the

bottom

side of the board. Do not solder

yet.

__ C46, 0.1 ("104")



__ C42, .001 ("102")



__ C41, .001 ("102")

__ C40, .001 ("102")

__ C39, .001 ("102")

__ C38, .001 ("102")

__ C37, .001 ("102")

__ C19, .001 ("102")

__ C36, .001 ("102")

__ C35, .001 ("102")

Bend and trim the leads of the capacitors just installed. When soldering them, be very careful not to

touch any of the top-mounted components with the soldering iron (especially relays). If necessary, bend the
top-mounted capacitors slightly to keep them out of the way.

Install a 100-µH RF choke (brown-black-brown) at RFC1, on the top side of the board. Form the leads

of RFC1 using long-nose pliers to fit between the indicated pads. Trim the leads and solder.

Install an 18-pin IC socket at U1, with the notched end of the socket toward the notched end of the

IC's PC board outline. Bend two leads of the socket slightly to hold it in place while soldering. (U1 itself
will be installed in a later step).

Install the ceramic resonator, Z1. (Z1 looks like a capacitor with three leads, and can be oriented in

either direction.)

Limit soldering time to 2 or 3 seconds on each pin to avoid altering Z1's oscillation

frequency

. Trim Z1's leads after soldering.

Before crystals X1-X4 can be installed, you’ll need to choose whether to set up your K1 for 80-

kHz or 150-kHz VFO coverage

. The 80 kHz range covers the most-used portion of each CW band, and

will provide slightly smoother tuning. Refer to the

Frequency Ranges

table on page 1 of this manual for

details.

Indicate your VFO range selection here for reference: ___ 80 kHz ___ 150 kHz

Also note your selected VFO range on page 12 of the owner's manual (right column).

Two different crystals,

X3A

and

X3B

, are supplied for the 30 meter band. Identify the appropriate

crystal using the table below, and store the unneeded crystal.

(X3 will be installed in a later step.)

VFO Range

80 kHz

10.100 MHz

X3A (18.100 MHz)

150 kHz

X3B (18.000 MHz)

If your K1 is already assembled, use the VFO range you recorded on page 12 of the owner's manual.
