[Elecraft] KX1 and prewound toroids

[Don Wilhelm]

Rushan,

If the KX1 is working fine, I would not replace the toroids.
Even if the pre-wound ones look better, they will not function any better
than the ones you have wound - it is the number of turns through the center
that determine how well a toroid works, not the appearance.

I have finished building KX1 serial number 156 a week ago with the one of
the option of KXAT1 and am happy to report that everything went very smooth.

Before to start to building I have also ordered pre-wound toroids to Mychael
Morohovich AA3WF <toroidguy@earthlink.net> but I couldn't wait to get them
to build the KX1 and KXAT1 and I use the toroids, which wound by my self.

Now pre wound toroids are also arrived. They are much better and really
professionally wound and measured toroids.

I do not know if I have to replace them with the old ones (wound by myself)
or not.

Any advice would be appreciated.
