Interesting.... my synthesizer module has the metal cover over it, but there wasn't the instructions to add the thermal pads on the power transistors (can't remember my K3's serial no. offhand, but I built it a couple months ago).
After the misery of having to take the bottom panel off my K2, it was a welcome relief that I didn't have to mess with thermal pads and stuff with my K3 hi hi, just screw the bottom cover on and go!.... Should I add the thermal pads in any case? 73, LS W5QD -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-mods-and-updates-tp5110146p5110408.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
