The LDG QRP AutoTuner PCB assembly is complete:

More (better) pictures to follow.
Just started looking at the case mounting parts:
1) The case is excellent and all parts are included.
An excellent value IMHO considering all hardware
and the very professional case.
2) A "Local QRPer" told me that the little wiring
diagram for the SPDT switches is upside down.
To match the panel label, wires should be reversed,
top and bottom on these switches.
3) Some folks have connected the LEDs backward (hence
sucking all light from a room, creating "dark").
Anyway, my manual was corrected by hand prior to
shipment.
4) I personally prefer the threaded stand-offs that
accept 4-40 hardware for PCB mounting. Will substitute.
5) The coaxial power plug supplied does not plug entirely
into the supplied coaxial power jack? It'll work, though.
Will likely finish case wiring and PCB installation tomorrow.
Any further comments beforehand or before my initial application
of power to the device?
OBTW I'm so impressed with this QRP AutoTuner that I will buy one
of the 100w units (group buy) to use with the IC-706.
