Uninstalled Components

Check off each of the components in the list below, verifying that

they are not yet installed.

__ C4, .01 (103)

__ C5, .01 (103)

__ C6, .01 (103)

__ C7, .01 (103)

__ C8, .01 (103)

__ R13, 68 k, 1%


__ RP3, 10 k resistor network

__ Q3, 2N3906
__ P1 (Mic. Configuration connector, on the bottom of the board)

The unfilled locations (above) are for parts that are provided with

the SSB adapter (model KSB2). If you have the SSB adapter kit, you
should install them now. Follow the third and fourth assembly steps
under Front Panel Board Components in the KSB2 manual (page
16).

Visual Inspection

Make sure there are no components installed backwards. Check

all diodes, resistor networks, electrolytic capacitors, and ICs. The parts
placement drawings in Appendix F will be helpful in verifying the
orientation of diodes.

Examine the bottom of the PC board for solder bridges, cold

solder joints, or unsoldered components.

Resistance Checks

Set all potentiometers to their mid-points (approx.).

Perform the resistance checks (to ground) listed below. U1 is on

the back of the board.
