[Elecraft] 1N5711 Diodes

[DDWEBB at aol.com]

I have just recently re-subscribed to the  reflector. So I have no knowledge 
of what may have been said regarding the two  reference diodes, D 16,D17 in 
the K2/100 and D1,D2 in the KAT100.
After  building and using my basic K2 back in 2000, I decided to upgrade to 
the K2/100  and the KAT100.
I finished both of them about three weeks ago and was  enjoying the two 
units. 
In the last two weeks though I have blown these  diodes twice. Is this an 
isolated incident?
