I didn't see anything on the Elecraft support page about a mod so I put
in a ticket a few days ago inquiring about my KPA500 Serial 1503. So
far, no answer.

Roy,
The modification can be done as prevent action in order to avoid the
loosing
the full power (12m) accompanied by burning smell or it can be the
solution
for
your already ruined amplifier.
The typical KPA500 misbehavior sounds like it is arcing inside and smells
the
classic something is burning smell. The SWR LED's are dancing upwards
as it
arcs. If you have connected the KAT500 tuner then it has the SWR around
1.3:1... and power is lost.
