Hi gang, My first question in the building of K1-4 s/n:1977.
Since R8 of the Front Panel Board was not what it was supposed to be (I got a 220 OHM instead of a 22 OHM), I figured I'd pick it up at the local Radio Shack. Well, I did, and it is a 22 OHM, 5% tolerance. But the unit calls for a 1/4 W and RS only had 1/2W. Now OBVIOUSLY this is fine electronically, but what about mechanically? Will the larger size be a show stopper, or will it be no "big" deal? It looks OK on the board (See appendix F in manual), but I am afraid of final assy and something "bumping" up against it. Can anyone "dissipate" my "resistance" to inserting this component? Thanks everyone in advance. I have become so used to overwhelming response on this reflector, I have to brace for the surge of replies.
