[Elecraft] KPA100 shield kit tip

[Philip L Carter]

Hello all:

I recently installed the new shield kit for the KPA100.
It requires that you sand-off an area of the side panels.  Since it is
hard to see where to sand, try this trick:
   dab a bit of white out on the crease of the spring clip and place the
side panel directly on the radio so that the mounting holes line up.  Lift
the side panel and you will see that the whiteout has transferred to the
panel. (if you have amp in a separate cabinet, mark those panels at the
same time).  Using rubbing alcohol and a paper towel, wipe off the spring
clip till its clean.  Sand the appropriate area on the panels.

Saves a lot of "I think it's in the right place" guesswork.
