Hi Walter, I believe we key the ksyn3 connector for proper insertion by removing one unused pin and placing a plug in the mating hole on the RF board. You can take a look at the mating conector to confirm.

F, October 28, 2008. I was just about to install the KSYN3 (ref manual, page 50) when I noticed that one pin on P73 on the KSYN3 board is missing. Looking at the figure on page 50, it is the third pin from the right, top row. The pin comes off the PCB, bends and enters the plastic, but it is missing on the other side (pins that insert into J73), close to the plastic portion of the plug. Just a tiny bit of the pin shows, not enough to insert into J73 at all. The manual does not have an "OBTW" regarding this, nor could I find any reference here on this missing pin, and the pictures in the manual, including the parts list photo do not reveal a missing pin. Soooo......can anybody please provide the missing clue so I can proceed with confidence or contact Elecraft. Thanks much.
