[Elecraft] Re: KPA100 question

[Ron ZL1TW]

Hi,
      Just my 2c worth......in the days before the stray oscillation that 
occurred in *some* KPA100's was found and a fix presented, I was advised by 
Gary to try mounting  my C83 on the *TOP* of the ends of the 1 and 3 
"winding" of T2, and it is still there lying parallel with the PC board, so 
having it slightly off vertical in the suggested position shouldn't matter 
a fig I imagine.
Putting the 1k resistor across RFC3 fixed the oscillation problem, and I 
never bothered to put C83 back in it's proper place. My KPA100 works fine. 
( now)
Cheers.....Ron ZL1TW
