[Elecraft] Installing Mod kits?

[Alan Bloom]

I believe they are separate modifications with similar names.

The LINE OUT mod kit contains two modifications.  One is to reduce
speaker amplifier distortion at high output levels and the other has a
similar affect on the LINE OUT signal.

The AF Amplifier Output modification adds a couple of pull-down
resistors to the speaker outputs to suppress potentially damaging
voltage spikes that can occur if the outputs are connected to a short
circuit or very low-impedance load.
