To Don, Ron, et.al., Thanks for the information about tightening the screws. I just finished the process - not 5 minutes start to finish. They needed less than the suggested 1/8 turn to snug 'em up, so I'll go back in a few months and finish the job.

So, as I probably have only a few minutes of time at 100 watts, when should I reset the mounting screws. Is this like 3 months or 3000 miles or is it strictly a matter of time? Should I just pound out a few hours of tests into a dummy?
