[Elecraft] kpa100 with kat100-2

[Dave Van Wallaghen]

Don,

Just to clarify - does this include the mod to L1 on the KIO2 AUXBUS board
as explained on the KK7P web site? I found a contradiction to this mod on
KI6WX site. (Was or is there a possible current draw problem through L1)?

Thanks in advance,
Dave, W8FGU
