Slight Correction - [Elecraft] 20 amp fuse

[Tom Hammond]

Hi Steve:

I previously wrote

   To join the two wires, I use a home=made butt-joint connector
   fashioned from a 3/4" length of brass (hobby) tubing purchased
   at my nearby hardware store. I Stripped the ends of the two
   wires to 3/8" each, bought a length of hobby brass tubing which
   would just barely accept #10 wire,

Aaaayyy!  Should have typed #8 wire, not #10, continuing...

   slipped one wire into the tubing and soldered it into place,
   filling the empty 3/8" of the tubing about 1/3 full of solder as
   well. Then I inserted the other wire, reheated the joint and
   pushed the wire into the tubing. The solder flowed to the new
   wire, a bit dropped to the floor, and the rest completely filled
   the tubing. I then applied 2 layers of heatshrink tubing over
   the finished joint.

   Worked like a champ.

And it still does.

73,
