Generally flat head screws are used on the externally visible surfaces (top and sides), and pan head screws are used otherwise.
I'd use a pan head here. I'll ask the manual author to update the manual. Happy building! 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ian Kahn - Ham Sent: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 13:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] KAT500 Assembly Question I'm assembling KAT500 s/n 860 and have reached the step where I attach the L-bracket at LB1 on the circuit board. The instructions don't specify whether the 3/16" 4-40 screw used is flat head or pan head. Can anyone who has assembled the KAT500 offer guidance? I'm waiting on Elecraft support for an answer, but am impatient to get this finished and installed with the rest of my K-Line today/tonight. Thanks for any and all assistance. 73 es gud DX de -- Ian Ian Kahn, KM4IK Roswell, GA EM74ua <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] K3 #281, P3 #688, KPA500 #1468 HRD v5.x/6.0 Test Team ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
