3. Preparation for Assembly
Overview of the Kit
The K2 uses modular construction, both physically and electrically.
This concept extends to the chassis (Figure 3-1). Any chassis element
can be removed during assembly or troubleshooting. (Also see photos
in Appendix D.) If the KPA100 is installed, it takes the place of the
original top cover.

As shown in Figure 3-2, there are three printed circuit boards (PCBs)
in the basic K2 kit: the Front Panel board, Control Board, and RF
board. Option modules plug into the RF or Control board, but are not
shown here.
