[Elecraft] KX1 didn't take long enough to build?

No actually you should tell it is is impeding the flow of current too
much for you.  I'm sure you'll get a resistive attitude from it then.

I should ask Ron what he means on page 5, third assembly step where the
builder is supposed to cut 1.5" lengths of "INSULTED" wire. 

Now how exactly is the builder supposed to determine which wires have
been insulted, and which have not? If the builder isn't sure, should
he/she specifically insult a couple of the particular wires so as to be
sure? Does anyone have any specific advice on how to insult a wire?
Should you call it too skinny? Too short? Too long? Not shiny enough? 

This KXB30 module is going to require some extra communications
construction and comprehensive vocabulary!

Seriously- thank you for the clarification. The manual looks great. Very
much looking forward to this kit. Don't understand why folks are upset
about the minor wait...the anticipation is half the fun. Sort of like,
well, forepl***

I better quit while I am ahead.

Thanks!
