Stan,
Is your address good on QRZ.com I will mail you a 4.7 ohm no charge... I only have 5% 1/8-1/2 watt let me know...this will get you going till your stock arrives...

I buy from Mouser (good for small quantities) or DigiKey. I usually buy
more than one resistor because of the minimum shipping cost. I keep a list
of things I'd like to have and order something about once a month.
I bought a resistor assortment from Joe Knows Electronics or Sparkfun or
Elenco through Amazon.com. Look on amazon for "resistor assortment" or
"capacitor assortment"

I just traded my beloved little K1 for a KX1.
The KX1 has the KXB3080 and tuner.
I was going to try the power mod and wondered where you guys get resistors
on the internet. I know.... dumb question but I'm not an electronics guru
like you guys. I actually have the 33 ohm resistor but I can't find the 4.7
ohm resistor in my one horse town.
The prices I'm coming up with shipping are in the $10-12 dollar range.
