Ken,
Although *supposedly* the inductor should be able to supply the needed
current, I recommend replacing it with a toroid.
Especially if the inductor is of the older miniature type.
12 turns on a FT25-43 or FT37-43 core will work nicely.

I just completed moving my KPA100 and KAT100 into the EC2 enclosure. I am
really pleased with the result! Spring is here! All I have to do is
disconnect 2 cables from my K2/10 with KAT2 and hook up the camper for QRP
fun in the woods of Virginia. Can someone advise me whether or not it is
necessary to replace L1 (the 15-mH inductor on AUX2 board)? Some posts
suggest that its current capacity is inadequate to power the digital
subsystem of the KPA100/KAT100. I do provide DC power to the K2/10 and
KAT100 through their coaxial DC connectors. Thanks!
