Good day,
I have light from the LCD escaping from the right hand side of the LCD display
through the push buttons on the front panel. I thought I followed the
directions in the assembly manual, remembering that I positioned the light
blockers per the photo in the manual. Has anyone else have
Mine is factory assembled with no light so it is probably and installation
issue.

Jim,
I also had a light leakage problem. The only way to correct it is to remove
the front panel and disassemble it where you can get to the front panel board.
Reposition the blocker strip to be in close proximity to the buttons. Roy

Steve,
I tried to poke the blocker strip with a strait pin through the button holes.
That did not work for me. Disassembly and repositioning the blocker strip was
the only way I was able to block the light. Poking with a pin is worth a try,
however. Roy Morris W4WFB
Steve -
Interesting. Did yo nudge it toward the LCD or away? I can't see any foam thru
the
button gaps, and my buttons have a slight gap on the left, between them and the
LCD.

Hi Jim,
I assembled my K3/100 and had the light leak also. After disassembling the
front panel I felt the light blockers were too narrow. I called Elecraft
and they sent a new set to me. The new ones were still kind of narrow so I
passed on installing them and drove into town to buy a roll

This would be very difficult, Gary. The LCD backlight is integrated
with the LCD itself, as a module, and if I remember correctly it
contains an array of 14 LEDs. The LED color is fixed, and there are no
plans to offer an alternate color.
