Hi Mike, thanks for bringing this up........ This is a problem that I thought that I would have here in Tropical North Queensland so I spent the extra few dollars and had my K3 built with the SS Screw kit by the factory.
I'm so glad I did, no unsightly rusty screws to be seen anywhere even though my gear lives in a moist tropical, seaside environment. Now, if Elecraft would offer a similar SS Screw option for both the P3 and KPA500 (as well as the up and coming KAT500 and the KX3) then we'd all be on a winner. How about it Wayne & Eric, we'd like SS screw kits for the P3, KPA500, KAT500 & KX3 please. 73 de Jeff Cochrane - VK4BOF East Innisfail QLD, Australia K3 #4257, P3#1629, KPA-500 #161 ----- Original Message ----- From: "W0MU Mike Fatchett" <[email protected]> To: "Elecraft Reflector" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, December 08, 2011 3:19 PM Subject: [Elecraft] Rusting screws > Nearly all my case screws on my K3 and KPA 500 are showing signs of rust > after being in Saint Lucia for just 11 days.
