My KX3 is about 2 months old and no such issues;
no scraping, filing nor dremeling required.
Probably a one-off issue, or a single batch.

Well, since a painted surface doesn't make a

The same is true of the W2 wattmeter kit.
Nor sure why Elecraft didn't specify to the
fabricator that this area on both kits should
not be painted.
I bought a Dremel tool kit, only to discover
that we had one already. :-)

to use a motor tool (in the US it's a 'Dremel
tool') with a conical grinding cylinder.
