I have a K3 that completely blocks the front panel display light from showing 
through the push button holes.  I have another K3 that DOES show some light 
through the push button holes when looking directly straight on or looking 
straight on at an acute side angle.   I know the light is supposed to be 
totally blocked.  I removed the front panel board and installed new light 
blocker strips on each side of the display with the adhesive side of these 
strips pressed towards the front panel .  The new light blocker strips did not 
fix this.  The light is still showing between the front panel button holes and 
the push-button bladder on both sides of the front panel display. so it appears 
that the bladder is not seating snugly against the back of the front panel.  
The buttons and LEDs seem to protrude through the front panel holes the same as 
the other K3.  I am going to try to correct this again, but because it requires 
so much disassembly I would like to know if anyone else has had 
 this trouble and what was done to correct it.  Maybe I am overlooking 
something.  Thanks for any help.  Roy Morris  W4WFB
