1. The leads are too short. About a week ago Gerard, PA3GP,

extending the leads by soldering short extensions. He got no

I didn't have this problem with #6123. How long are the leads?
The leads are 1/8'. If I use the 1/8" spacers, there is not enough
physical
contact with the board to allow soldering.
2. The diffuser has what I assume are polarity markings. Each
LED has
the leads marked with 'A' and 'K' and the board has a '+'
indicated
for each diode. Can I assume that the 'K' is the '+', or
do I not care?
The diffuser has group 2 rotational symmetry, so it is not possible
to put it in the wrong way round.
The holes on the board are spaced 5/16" on both ends. When I insert
the diffuser
without the spacers, I can insert it either way and it looks like it
aligns properly.
I'm not seeing anything that I can use as a 'key'.
