I'll have to make some more measurements, but Paul's seem to have much less
gain compression than mine. (0.6 vs 1.4 dB from 1 kW to 1.5 kW) That's also
closer to the specs for a pair of BLF88XR's.

10W drive, Gain = 15.6dB 180W
15W drive, Gain = 15.8dB

Don’t try to remove the leads from the sticky tape, just use your flush cutters

FB John,
Mine arrived today.
Unfortunately I’m in Colorado getting ready to activate a SOTA in the morning
with a kx2, so I won’t get to install the kpa-1500 until Sunday.
Wait this is not unfortunate, getting outside with a kx2 is a good thing.
WG0AT and I will be activating W0C/SP-081.
Off topic & very off color. Not appropriate for this reflector, please.

Hi Fred,
It's called a sequencer. Individual reels of tape and reel axial parts are
loaded in the sequencer. So there would be an entire reel of 10k resistors, a
separate reel of 100k, separate reel of diodes, etc.
The sequencer then removes the parts from the tape and creates a new tape with

measured each of mine as I was about to insert it, and all were
correct. I can see the colors, I just can't name them so this was a
huge gift from
As Don says, different people have different ways of organizing
the hardware. I use ice cube trays. With them, I can put a
finger in and pull a 4-40 split lock washer out with a
fingernail. YMMV!

I took about 10 years to build it. I started, then moved the ham shack to the

'professionals' (sometimes cronyism sneaks in) who have spent a long
time in the trades and have moved up (i.e. the NFPA is mostly retired
fire chiefs).
Old standard way of doing it. They used to use a solder pot and immerse the
twisted wires in the hot solder. Then cover with rubbery tape and then friction
tape.

Scott,
First, do not mix up the front panel, control board, and RF board parts
when doing inventory, do each separately.
Inventory the inductor bag contents separately as well - there is a 1mH
RF choke that looks very closely like a 1k resistor.
If you are not adept at identifying screw
I'll be starting a K2 build in the near future after the inventory is
complete. A partial inventory is complete at this point. I'm looking
for tips and tricks for a successful build. Right now my biggest
problem as I see it, is how to organize all the caps and resistors to
make the build go
