  Hi Bill;
  I'm happy you are enjoying the build.
  As for next week end, it is possible to postpone our get together for the 
week after but only if the consensus wishes to do that.


  What is the consensus of the builders?
  A. Continue next Saturday with the build?
  B. Postpone for a week due to the long week end?

    Today was the first session of the KARC kit build.
    Everyone is well on their way with building their kit.
    There was a little slip-up by me with the soldering of the SMD device.
    I had put the chip on backwards for a few members but was able to 
correct this in all but one board.
    I will orientate Dave's board next week during the second and last build 
session.  Dave I thought you were going to leave me your board so
    I imagine you are going to keep working on your board this week.
    I will bring my hot air tool to remove and re-orient the SMD on your 
board.
    We should be able to test the boards next week so continue populating 
the boards this week.
    If you have any questions with the build, email me on this list so 
everyone can read your post.
    In this way, the same question does not have to be answered several 
times.

    I was happy to see everyone was enjoying themselves.  It was really 
interesting when the small SMD chip decided to take a little trip :O)
    Colourful expletives were used a bit to express my appreciation hihi.

    I look forward to seeing you next week where we will test the 
transceivers.
