Hi to the list,

Just a quick question is the enamel wire, both the red and green the same wire used throughout all the kits/modules the same? I.E could I use any spare red or green from building the basic K2 in the KSB2 module or the 100w PA?


I recall that most toroids call for #26 wire, while others call for #28 (small cores with more windings). Other than a possible fit problems using larger wire, it shouldn't matter for the low-power circuits (the different colors are to reduce confusion on transformers). The KPA100 uses #22 wire for the low-pass filters, which is probably dictated by power-handling and loss. There should be more than enough wire in any of the kits.
