John, Make R6 a 470 ohm just in case you ever add the K60XV option. The 470 ohm is shipped with the K60XV, but the value in the KAT2 is 47 ohms. Without the K60XV installed you can use either value. R6 is not installed until after some inital checks are completed - just follow the manual instructions. At the time the checks are done and you are ready to mount R6, the KAT2 is already in place and it is easier to mount it on the bottom of the board, but either side will work fine. Except fo the 470 ohm info, all the proper instructions and notes are all in the current KAT2 manual.
