[Elecraft] KAT100 Manual Errata

[Unifiedtx@aol.com]

Page 33, right column, last paragraph in the KAT100 manual has been changed 
in Errata Sheet Dec 4, 2002 (rev. A-3).  The essence of the paragraph says if 
the power level seems to jump continuously and never settle down, it is 
probably due to RF getting into the KAT100 control cable.  It says to try 
desoldering the VRFDET line at the K2 end of this cable and then try 
soldering a .01 uF capacitor across the VRFDET line at the K2 end (inside the 
KAT100-1 control cable's backshell between the bare wire at pin 1 and the 
white wire at pin 7.  Why put the .01 uF capacitor across these pins at the 
K2 end if the VRFDET line is disconnected?  This seems to say to me that the 
.01 uF capacitor should be soldered between pin 1 and pin 7 in the backshell 
at the K2 end WITHOUT desoldering the VRFDET line unless this is a step to 
get the KIO2 inside the KPA100 or K2 with KIO2 to settle down.  I don't want 
to have to modify the control cable if I put the KPA100 and KAT100 in the EC2 
enclosure.  I would like to use it in both configurations without having to 
change it.  Have I missed something?
