John,
It would appear that your KX1 is OK except for the burned/vaporized
board trace.
One possible cause is a short from Q6 to the case when it is assembled.
Check for burrs around the countersunk hole in the case and if you do
not have a nylon screw for securing Q6 to the case/heat-sink,
Don,
A little powdered Rit Dye dissolved in a few ml's of rubbing alcohol will
dye epoxy. A drop or two of that mixture will color the small amount of
epoxy necessary to do the job. An old flytying trick...
