Re: [Elecraft] Unpacking the K1 package contents
Perhaps it should be called a thermal conductor and electrical insulator but then some people always complain even if hung with a new rope. 73, Fred, AE6QL -Original Message- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Ron D'Eau Claire Sent: Saturday, January 30, 2016 4:34 PM To: 'Mark Petrovic'; elecr...@qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Unpacking the K1 package contents Hello Mark: The "thermal insulator" is a thin flexible rectangular bit about 1/2" by 3/4" in size that has a hole near one end and is self-stick, so it is supplied on a bit of backing paper you peel it off of when you install it on the power transistor.

Re: [Elecraft] Unpacking the K1 package contents
I believe he has found it, but this and Don's reply are right on. So many times, a new ham is trying to "count the parts" and runs across a term that could be Swahili as far as he knows ... Who would think that a "thermal insulator" looks like a little rectangular tab of paper buried in a small envelope ... I'd have thought of "blanket" like on the water heater. I think that's what this list is for. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the Cal QSO Party 1-2 Oct 2016 - www.cqp.org On 1/30/2016 4:50 PM, Byron Servies wrote: The K1 manual has an image of the insulator in the inventory section.

Re: [Elecraft] Unpacking the K1 package contents
Hello Mark: The "thermal insulator" is a thin flexible rectangular bit about 1/2" by 3/4" in size that has a hole near one end and is self-stick, so it is supplied on a bit of backing paper you peel it off of when you install it on the power transistor. It may be in one of the little brown envelopes. There is a photograph of it still mounted on its backing paper in the parts list. The Acrylic Bezel is the plastic cover over the LCD on the front panel. Look at the drawing of the K1 on the front cover of your manual and you'll see a rectangle depicting the cover with a screw at each corner covering the LCD itself and the words "Elecraft" and "K1 Transceiver". It should be in one of the brown envelopes in the kit. 73, Ron AC7AC -Original Message- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Mark Petrovic Sent: Saturday, January 30, 2016 3:50 PM To: elecr...@qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Unpacking the K1 package contents Hi.

Re: [Elecraft] Unpacking the K1 package contents
I found the parts. They were both in an envelope labeled "E850040 - Serial Number kit, K1".
