[Elecraft] KAT500 cycling

When my KAT500 started acting strange I opened it up.  There are two 
thick, green insulated wires that cross each other on the PCB, and the 
top one had sagged down and got close enough to the bottom one that it 
had arced through the insulation.  I'm guessing I had a less than 
optimal match!  Anyway after consulting support, I gently separated the 
two lines and put a double layer of electrical tape between to hopefully 
prevent recurrence.
