The reason given to me a couple of days ago by Elecraft (for L9 in my KX1, I assume similar applies) was because the "micro" part is no longer available so the "mini" part has been substituted.

Tom,
Can you elaborate on the reason for the change? Is it a construction thing or an operational improvement. In other words, if my K2 is happy should I be concerned about replacing the RFC's already installed?

thanks

EVERYONE WHO BUILDS A NEW ELECRAFT KIT SHOULD READ THIS APPLICATION NOTE!!!

It deals with the fact that Elecraft appears to have bitten the bullet and substituted heavier-duty (and slightly larger) RFCs for many of the sub-mini RFCs used in their kits. The end product will be fewer damaged RFCs and happier builders. BUT you do NEED to know how to handle/install the newer RFCs since they might not fit directly into the available holes... here's how.

Thanks to Elecraft for this app note!
