[Elecraft] KPA100 Resistor R9

Sat Jul 6 10:49:01 2002

Hi

All very true except when the resistor is a 1% then 100 ohms is brown-bla=
ck-black-black-brown. The first band is the one the next two bands are th=
e two zeros and the fourth band is the multiplier of zero. The last or fi=
fth band is the tolerance of 1%. A 10 ohm 1% resistor would have brown-bl=
ack-black-gold-brown. In this case the gold band is a .1 multiplier. The =
Elecraft manual does not list the tolerance band in the part list. This w=
ill be a gold band for 5% for most resistors and a brown band for 1% resi=
stors.

When building one of the KPA100's I miss read the manual and installed a =
10 ohm resistor in R23 (brown-black-black instead of brown-black-black-bl=
ack) but I caught my mistake when I got to the R9 install on page 34. I c=
ould not find a 10 ohm but had a 100 ohm 1%. The K2 spoils you with the r=
esistors all taped in order of the installation so you need to be careful=
 reading the color codes with the KPA100

Brown-Black-Black is 10 Ohms.

Brown Black Brown is 100 Ohms.
