[Elecraft] Upper power supply voltage limit with KX3

[Wayne Burdick]

Damage due to using anything over 15 V would void the warranty, since that's the specified maximum. 

That said, we always over-design wherever possible, so it'll probably be OK. For example, we shoot for 25 V or higher capacitor ratings for all capacitors exposed to the supply.
