Just finished the KNB2 for my K2 (a birthday present from the in-laws
-- yea!) and while I was inside the K2 to install it I tightened up
the screws on the KPA100 finals per Elecraft's recommendation, since
I've been using the radio for about 6 months now and this was
probably overdue. They all took a little snugging up, maybe a little
less than 1/8 turn.
My question is: will they stay tight now for all time? Or do I have
to check them now and then? What's the theory on the thermal cycling
here and how it effects these screws?
Just wondering...
