A perfect solution is at hand. I had two left over rear rubber feet from a KPA500 replacement bottom cover kit and I found that they will mount using existing screw locations on the bottom of the KAT500. Using these feet makes the KAT500 match perfectly with the height of the SP3 that it is next to.
I have an email off to Elecraft parts to try and buy two more of these feet so that everything matches…… as it should…… I think :) Michael Blake [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > On Jun 27, 2018, at 3:04 PM, Michael Blake <[email protected]> wrote: > > I received and completed my KAT500k this morning and I must say it is quite a > tuner.
