[Elecraft] K1 crystals

Having built a K2 and subsequently changed the positions of the
grounding wires to improve the rejection characteristics of the filter,
I should like to ask whether there is any similar advantage in grounding
the crystals in the K1 at the bottom, rather than at the top, of the
crystal cans?

I appreciate the care necessary in soldering the grounding wires to the
crystals, but if there would be improvement in soldering the wires at
the bottom, I would prefer do it now while building the K1 rather than
modify it later.
