Tony,
Since this is not a high frequency area, there should be little
performance difference (if any) between SMD parts and axial leaded
parts. The more relevant consideration is physical fit. If you have
1/8 watt resistors it would be easier than 1/4 watt, but you should be
able to get the 1/4 watt parts in there.

Jim,
The reason I ask about using regular resistors instead of SM resistors is
that I don't have the correct value SM resistors. If there is a degradation
in performance with film axial lead resistors I will get the SM resistors.
It is not a question of qualification of mounting SM components.

It sounds like Tony should leave the K3 as is. Dont screw it up unless
your qualified to make the mods. Jim K4JAF

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Buffer Mod
Tony,
I have the LP-Pan with recommended Creative Labs E-MU
0202 and find this to be optimal, I mean no reason to
make a mod of any type to K3. If someone told you that
this must be done, I'd want to see why with my own
eyes before doing this job.
IMO (in my opinion) you don't "work" with SMD on K3,
they fly around like little fleas even if you use a
pair of 15w irons to remove them. They are just that
small. But you can get them off without any major
damage, find them, and carefully replace them - *when
necessary*. YMMV...

Should I expect any negative impacts if I used
regular resistors in place
of SM resistors for this mod?
