Kent,
Count the holes - if there are 10 holes, then it is the newer shield. There
is only a difference in the size at one corner - the corner that covers the
RF output jack.
The 'placement' of the original 7 holes is unchanged - 3 holes were added to
the newer shield to accomodate the grounding clips.

I've received two very helpful hints to help me determine which is the old
KPA100 shield and which came with the Shield Upgrade Kit:
"The new shield should have holes in it to accept the three added
grounding clips."
and
"Hold the two up together - the one that is larger on several edges is
the 'new and inproved' shield - discard the smaller one."
(Thanks Tom and Don)
However, aside from the "pattern" on the shields (the crystallization
pattern of the galvanization? - on one it is much finer than the other),
the
size of the shields and number and placement of holes is _exactly_ the
same.
Any other ideas? Perhaps they are both 'new and improved'.
