During "The Molecular Level" the player is tasked to build a signal interceptor to first gain entrance to the Institute. In the quest, a note is given to the player, requiring special parts to build the machine, these parts are - Biometric Scanner to be used in the Control Console, Military Grade Circuitry Board to be used in the Beam Emmiter and a third part called Sensor Module. Given that the player is informed that the building of the Reflector Platform is easy, and indeed it only asks for common metal parts, I assume the Sensor module should be used to build the Relay Dish. But in-game, it only requires Cloth, Copper, Gold and Steel.
So there are 2 options
A - remove the sensor module from the "Items needed" note and the optional objective to find for one
B - make the sensor module a required component to build the Relay Dish
