I do not think anyone opting to make the short procedure has anything to worry
about regarding putting pressure on the PC board when mounting the RFC 47.
This choke is mounted between the thru-hole on the 12V trace and the pigtail
through the solder pad for the original RFC on top of the board. Again, if
your K3 has the KRX3 installed, it is best to use the short procedure to avoid
a possible problem with ESD. Previously, I had an occasion to remove my KRX3
to reposition my TMP cables so they would not be squeezed between the top of
the filters and the bottom of the KRX3 case. I used a properly grounded wrist
strap and work surface and still encountered an apparent ESD problem. Roy
