I have been building the KPA100 100 watt option for the K2. I'm half through page 16 right now. Very soon I'll be installing some of the solid state devices. I have a ground strap but am hard pressed in deciding where to ground it. I have an new Weller WTCPT soldering station, which is highly recommended by Scott at Elecraft. It is supposed to have a grounded tip. My work table is set up away from any outlets. Even the soldering station is power through an oranged extension cable from the next room. My shack outlets are all committed. I don't see a place on the soldering station to connect the strap to. I could make up a long braid from my station ground, which runs to a ground rod just outside the shack wall. I didn't bother with a ground strap for the diodes, although a re-reading of the manual recommends it. Any anti-static grounding ideas out there? 73, Steve N6VL _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
