[Elecraft] New Firmware 2.02f and the screws

[Hank Kohl K8DD]

Just received the new firmware for the K2 and the KPA100 today.
Stuck the chips in, and while I had the cover off the PA, I tightened the 
screws in the four transistors.  They all turned a slight amount except for 
one of the drivers - almost 1/8th of a turn.
I had tightened them all (about 1/8th turn each) before Field Day and at FD 
the heat sink ran absolutely HOT during runs of 100+ per hour.
So what am I'm trying to get across is:
             I'd tighten the transistor screws once a month until
             they don't tighten anymore.  And especially after
             an operating activity where the heat sink gets a lot
             hotter than very warm!
