[Elecraft] [K2] K2 KPA100MDKT

[Don Wilhelm]

Damon,

The resistor *may* be OK, often the ceramic coating gets chipped and the 
resistor is still intact.
OTOH, you can certainly replace it with the one you removed.

As a suggestion - since you are working on the KPA100, why not get the 
KPA100UPKT and install all the current changes.  Actually I don't know 
why the KPA100MDKT is still offered since most of the components in that 
kit are also supplied with the KPA100UPKT.
