N0SS Zero-beat indicator for KX1 errata

Bruce Beford
This is for anyone who has incorporated one of the SMD tuning indicator
PC boards by Tom, N0SS into their KX1. An error has come to light in the
installation instructions for this board. When connecting the red power
lead for the board to the main power switch for the KX1, DO NOT connect
the wire to the bottom pin on the switch. Instead, connect it to the TOP
PIN on this switch. The bottom pin is connected directly to the power
source, rather than being switched. Using this point to feed the tuning
indicator will result in the indicator board being powered all the time,
draining your internal batteries, if present.

If you have already installed one of these in your KX1, I suggest you
check this connection immediately.

Tom will be posting an updated instruction file to his website shortly.

73,
Bruce N1RX
