[Elecraft] KPA100 let smoke out

During a QSO on 40 CW tonight I suddenly "let the smoke out" of my KPA100. 
Under close inspection the only component that looks as if it may be bad is
RFC5 which had a very deposit on it.  It tests at 1.6 ohms but I don't know
if that is bad or not.  I would appreciate any help on how to start
troubleshooting this.  I plan to go through the resistance checks in the
build manual - any other ideas?
