I highly recommend that you get the proper screws from Elecraft to be
certain they are the correct length.
Hardware store screw are normally not available in black, so why mess up
the appearance of your KX2 with zinc plated screws.

You may want to verify whether Elecraft specifies Thermal Material where the
transistors attach.
My K3 and K3s both do. Haven’t disassembled my KX2.

Hi Tony. According to the K3 mod page, this was introduced at about s/n 280
so you're good to go.
You made me wonder why I hadn't heard of it! I have K3 #486 and I've done

0.15 amps.
2. What is the narrowest receiver filter width on CW?
It goes down to 0.05 kHz.
If you have any of the remaining screws then take one to the hardware store
when you go. They will do a perfect match for you. They use an aluminum
template folds referred to as a Screw Checker to make sure it is correct. The
