K2 inductor wattage

John Cooper

The 10uH inductors that go on the bottom of the rf board that are in the transmitter area of schematic are what size?   The ones I have are equivalent to 1/4watt resistor.  But the silkscreen looks more like 1/2watt size and it doesnt specify anywhere I can see in manual.  I ordered these off ebay and not from elecraft.

John,

The old inductors were larger than what is being used today.  The new
ones are about the size of a 1/4 watt resistor.
