RE: [Elecraft] KPA100 High Wattage Resistors

2006-11-08 Thread Don Wilhelm
Ben,

The ratings are conservative, so they can be mounted right down on the
board, but there is no harm in leaving a small gap - EXCEPT for the one
mounted on the bottom of the board - that one must go right down to the
board for physical clearance reasons.

 Should my 1W, 2W, and 3W resistors on my KPA100 be mounted
 pressed against the board, or should I leave some space between them?

Thanks Don,
   
  I didn't think of this until after I had mounted several of them, so I'm glad 
they can be mounted right down to the board.
