[Elecraft] Stiffer KXPD3 spring

[Don Wilhelm]

Steven,

How much spring action is an individual preference.  Some prefer a very 
light touch while others prefer something a bit more heavy.

Have you tried carefully stretching the stock spring?
Be careful not to stretch too far at a time, but do it in increments 
until it feels right for you.  You can always get new springs from 
Elecraft and start over if you go too far.

Like most springs of that type, once you extend it by stretching, you 
will not be able to undo that action by compressing the spring.
