[Elecraft] KPA500 Serial number 0793 is on the air...

[Scott Manthe]

I put together my KPA500 this afternoon/evening. It went together fine 
with no issues, except a couple of problems I caused. Over torqued one 
of the accessory jack nuts and broke it, but luckily, I had a spare. I 
also almost dinged the transformer by forgetting to remove the side 
panel. Stopped short of causing any problems though. Almost 600 watts 
out on all bands with 28-29 watts drive. It's a fabulous amp and it was 
relatively fun to do the build. And I did finally find the serial number.
