[Elecraft] fix toroids in KX3

[Bill Blomgren (kk4qdz) via Elecraft]

So far, the first 14 had nothing to do with anything other than this discussion, or toroids that were damaged by heat because they had power (DC) fed to the output of the radio.  

Then there was a toroid that was wound incorrectly... in a K2 kit, purchases of cores,  Antenna discussions of an end fed.... Running power fed to the radio through a toroid, Then a K2 with a problem with drift. And then several involving wall warts that were broadcasting. An older pa making noise (relays).. signalink distortion, and 2 messages about "over the years the toroids used have changed...."

Not a lot of trouble with toroids, I'd say.




 
KK4QDZ - Now with Extra Class Priv's, and a tiny KX3 to enjoy them!

I suspect they have many times. Try going to 
http://marc.info/?l=elecraft and checking Subject 
with toroid entered into the Search box.
