PA100 PA Current Resistor

[KD1NA]

I am still building the PA100 D linear kit and have both the control module and main module finished. In building the PA module I find in the pack of resistors 2, 0.010 Ohm resistors that are mounted parallel for R7. This is no problem but when I located the bag containing the 2 large Resistors ( R5 and R6 ) I also located a large surface mount 0.005 Ohm resistor in the same bag which doesn't seem to be referenced on the parts list. Am I to assume that I do not use this component? I have already installed the 2, 0.010 resistors in parallel at R7 location.

Thanks and 73

Dave,

The R7 resistor is single 0.005 ohm current sense resistor. The two 0.010 ohm resitors are remains when 0.005 ohm was not available. You can keep the two 0.010 ohms in parallel.
