John,
Yes, the manual is confusing - bottom line is that there should be one
set of standoffs and one set of washers between the two boards - it
matters not which end of the standoff the washers are installed.
To make things easiest, put one set of lockwashers (the first set
installed) between the standoff and the board. Put the second set of
lockwashers under the screw-heads - it is much easier that way and it
works fine.
The manual will be updated to correct this confusion - as soon as Ron
gets a break from the K3 and finishes up the K2 manual updates.

Hi group.
I just assembled and installed a KAT2 module into my K2/QRP #5949. It seems to
be working fine.
On page 6, the 6th step instructs you to install the two standoffs onto the
Control board. The illustration shows the washer between the standoff and PC
board. I followed that instruction.
On page 12, the 4th step instructs you to secure the L-C board to Control board
standoffs. The instruction continues "These lock washers go between the standoffs
and the PC board, NOT between the PC board and screws as on the Control board."
