[Elecraft] Burn in of KPA100

[NG3V]

To Don, Ron, et.al.,

Thanks for the information about tightening the screws.  I just finished the
process - not 5 minutes start to finish.  They needed less than the
suggested 1/8 turn to snug 'em up, so I'll go back in a few months and
finish the job.

73,

Tom, ng3v

Hello group,
 
I built the 100 watt amp last summer, but can't seem to overcome the urge to
stay at qrp levels.
 
So, as I probably have only a few minutes of time at 100 watts, when should
I reset the mounting screws.  Is this like 3 months or 3000 miles or is it
strictly a matter of time?
 
Should I just pound out a few hours of tests into a dummy?
 
Thanks,
 
 
Tom
