[Elecraft] K2/100 - Hi Curr and loss of power control - help! de VK7JB

[VK7JB]

Hi All,

I replaced D16 and D17 on the KPA100  board and all is back to normal.  

I'm still stumped how I managed to cook them.

Just in case I ever have to do this repair again, I mounted the diodes on
the underside of the board.  There's plenty of clearance.  When mounted on
top of the board, they're tucked away in a tricky to access spot and I found
removing the old diodes the most difficult part of the repair.  Next time
it'll be easier to get at them and to pull them out from underneath.

73,

John
