same as the screw that was already there, "
  
Jamie,
       
I forgot something.  Be sure to measure the length of the screw.  The screw that was there should have been 1/4 inch long.  The new one should be 1/2 inch (or very close to that).  They should be measured from the top of the flat head to the end of the threaded end.  I found a couple of screws (not that one) in my kit that were the next smaller length.  The screw packer must have had a bad day and put the wrong length in.  Elecraft was quick to send new ones that were the correct length.
