Hello all.  I have a Ten-Tec Model 1320 kit I built and used for some =
months.  Last Christmas I received a new portable power supply for my =
QRP stuff.  As all things like this go I was not concentrating on the =
task at hand due to all the distractions of the holidays etc and being =
unfamiliar with my new power supply you can guess what happened next.

Yep, I reversed the power polarity to the 1320.

Does anyone have any experience with this happening to a T-Kit?  Can =
anyone give me a good idea of the parts I am likely to have to replace =
or can someone just say "Sorry, it's junk.  Chalk it up to learning."  I =
know the final is gone because of the big hole in it but there doesn't =
seem to be any other visible physical damage.  There's no audio.

I will be in Sevierville in a couple of weeks on vacation and I plan to =
stop by the factory (just a side note there, hint hint factory guys) so =
I am hoping to pick up if not the parts a new kit to replace it.

Love my Pegasus and RX-320 (got them for Christmas this past year).

Thanks.
