Subject: PA Transistors Maintenance in K2

[Jan-10]

Having assembled the K2 kit in 1999 ~ over a period of some 6 weeks ~ do
you suppose I should recheck the hardware now?

Happy HALLOWEEN . . . .  Jan, K1ND

Jan,

If you have the KPA100 and have operated it for more than 5 hours at
greater than 50 watts, then the answer is YES, take the KPA100 off the
base K2, remove the shield and tighten the PA mounting screws.  a 1/8
turn is normally all that it takes.

73,
