[Elecraft] 50 Ohm Load - source?

I just built that RF load kit from OHR.  Works as advertised.  

At 150 MHz, the impedance is 50 + j2, which is pretty good for metal
oxide resistors.  At HF, I can't measure any reactance but that's
probably due to the SWR meter.

The load is convection cooled (flow-through).  Kit instructions are
clearly written and easy to follow.
