Fred,
Look carefully, that new manual does not match your KSB2. Yours has an
SSM2165 Speech Compressor and the new one uses an SSM2166 - the added
resistors support that new IC.
As far as the extra 10k resistor, one is supplied with every KSB2 for
use as a bias resistor if needed. It is listed in the parts list as a
component on the front panel.

I am currently in the process of assembly a KSB2 (REV E KSB2 PC Board) which
I purchased with my K2 in November 2011. I am currently completing the
installation of the resistors on the back side of the board. After I
completed installing the resistors I noticed that I had an extra 10K
resistor. I then checked my inventory and it showed that I had inventoried
3 10K resistors versus the 2 called for in inventory sheet.
Just to be safe I downloaded the latest manual and compared it to my manual.
It lists an additional four resistors on the back of the board (R21, R22,
R23 and R24).
I have two questions:
1. Should I be concerned that these resistors are not on the Rev E board?
2. What is the purpose of the additional resistors?
