Sounds like somebody just made a wild guess at how wide.
Or didn't have some of these other issues fully figured out.
Did anybody ever evaluate the failure?
A skinny trace with feedthroughs such that the owner can choose to cut the
trace and put in something better seems a fine compromise.
The scheme I presented is $0.10 for the schottky series diode,?
otherwise no additional burden to this $109 rig.?

I had a skinny trace fuse on a CRK-10A QRP transceiver which did burn through, but not before it fried virtually everything else on the board. I wouldn't trust a skinny trace fuse in a circuit at all...period. That's sad, too, because it's a really nice rig with an outstanding receiver.
