[Elecraft] KAT500 Owner's Manual Errata

2013-05-21 Thread Roy Morris
I have one of the earlier KAT500 kits that did not mention installing the 
cable ties to secure the four large toroidal inductors, so I decided I would 
bring my tuner up to date using the 4 plastic cable ties.  The cable tie 
holes exist on the PC board.  The largest toroid could not be secured with a 
4 cable tie.  It is not long enough, so I will see if I can find a longer 
tie at Home Depot or Lowes.  Roy Morris  W4WFB
