[Elecraft] Rf chokes 6,7,8 too large? kpa100

[vze3v8dt at verizon.net]

I just got the KX1 for Christmas from my XYL and found that L9 was supposed to be a micro sized 100 uH device.  The one I have is a mini size, not micro.  The board layout was for the micro as well.  I contacted Elecraft and they told me that the micro size is no longer available so that is the part to use.  They also forwarded a link for how to install the inductor:

I'm not sure if this applies to your KPA100, though, but thought I would share some possibility of the same issue.

>Wife got me the kpa100 for my k2 this Christmas. Started to put it together and found the rfc 6,7,and 8 seem to be the small size rather than the miniature the holes are spaced for. Will it hurt to install them in a slightly vertical orientation or did I get the wrong ones in the kit? I am positive I have correctly identified the chokes and all the others fit like they are supposed to. Kevin
