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.
