Dennis,
As Mark NK8Q has already mentioned a 1N4148 obtained from any source is
suitable. What surprises me is that D18 got fried in the first place if
everything else in the circuit is working properly. It might be wise to buy
some spare diodes in case the fault raises its ugly head again before you
have found the cause.

Hey there Elecraft! I just noticed that D18 on the back of rf bd got fried.
The diode looks melted in the middle,
and is probably not useable. Now here is my question, and I feel silly even
to ask, but, can I just go to
Radio Shack and pick up another 1N4148 diode, or is the diode provided by
Elecraft specific for this kit.
