[Elecraft] KPA500 - Z-Bracket Assembly Question

[Doug VE3VS]

Quote "Finally getting started on Serial 366.  Got to page 22 - attaching the 
Z-bracket to the heat sink.  Using the 5/16" flat head screws all of 
the screws bottom out before the bracket is tight against the heat 
sink.  Has anyone else seen this?  I did double check the screw 
length.  I don't think the bracket should be loose. "

Hmmm! Unusual. Earlier this week I finished assembling #402.  I used
hardware exactly as called for in the instructions. No problem with
assembling the Z-bracket onto the heat sink, nor with fastening the bottom
cover. I was one screw short at one point during the assembly, but simply
used one from the "extras" package to complete the work.

I have been successfully integrating the KPA500 into my station, and giving
it a good workout during the past couple of days.

73, Doug, VE3VS
