[Elecraft] KAT100 Spare Parts

[Don Wilhelm]

Rolf,

The 6-50 should work but it will be more 'touchy' during adjustment.
You could cut the PC trace at one end of the capacitor and insert a 100
pf fixed capacitor and the capacity range will be close to the original.

Just in case there was any misunderstanding - my suggested 100 pf 
capacitor would go in series with your 6-50 pf trimmer, so that fixed 
capacitor goes across the PC trace cut that might be made.
