[hpsdr] Mounting Munin T1 & T2??

[John]

Hi Bob,

I don't think that document applies in my case.  With the transistors 
I got with my kit, and with the four board mounting spacers made so 
that the tops of the transistor flanges are flush with the top of the 
circuit board, the other transistors leads are way above the level of 
the top of the board.
