After having built a K2, KX1 and numerous other homebrew gear, I have  noted
by my own observations and comments of others some confusion as to  exactly
what colors are being observed on small parts, usually resistors and RF chokes.

Many males, including myself, have a small degree of red-green color blindness. This manifests itself by seeing a red resistor band as brown, for example. Poor lighting exacerbates this, and I have taken parts outdoors to sort them. One of my daughters used to serve as my designated color reader when she was only 2-1/2 years old! It gave her a great feeling of importance to be able to do something critical better than her dad.
