HI Colin... You're not the first to have this happen.
In the archives you will find that some people took a 1/4" or 3/8" drill bit and beveled (by hand) the top of Q6, to give more clearance between the screw and the collector. This works. On some rigs, that screw goes down a little further. Good luck. The kx1 is a super little rig. 73, Paul - ve1dy http://www3.ns.sympatico.ca/ppike --- Colin WHITMORE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > 'Crafters, > > I having a bit of a problem.
