[Elecraft] KPA BRacket and top cover

[ke4d at att.net]

Yes Chuck. Mine does the same thing.  T thought loosing the side a bit might make it "pop" back flush and then retighten the screws but that didn't help.   Your right, it does detract a bit cosmetically from the amp (which is a great product)  I now have my month old KPA500 interfaced with my day old K3.  Nice combination.

Just finished a KPA500 build and all went smoothly. The only issue I see is
that the Z-Bracket appears to be about 1mm taller at the front than at the
rear. The result is that the top cover protrudes above the front panel in
the center by a small amount, perhaps 1mm. At the rear the top cover is
flush with the rear panel in the center...no protrusion at all. This is a
cosmetic issue but does detract a bit for the "fit and finish" of the rest
of the KPA500 and the K3.

Has anyone else seen this issue? Thought I would ask before calling home.
