About the yellow vs. orange color coding, I don't know if Elecraft even
stocks a 3.7 uH inductor in that size. If they do, I guess it's possible
there was a switch.
At last, I have compared L7 with L10 as you suggested in an earlier post
and... the color of the first band is the same shade of orange under all
lighting conditions I could try, including natural sunlight. My friend
Nicola also took some better pictures (soon to go online) with his
digital reflex camera and they're so detailed you can read the bands
yourself, just drop me a line if you'd care to 8-)
So, either the manufacturer misprinted the first band as orange instead
of yellow or my KX1 has got a 3.7uH inductor instead of a 4.7uH. Funny
thing is, apparently it doesn't make much difference!
Now crossing "live" to Gary... does Elecraft carry 3.7uH inductors in
stock in the same size as the KX1 L7? And, more importantly, does it
matter if the value is not correct, in the shorty/long run?
B73,
