[Elecraft] Those pesky 14 crystals

Hi all,
This has got to be a stupid question, but hey, it happens sometimes.
Part of the reason is that I haven't had to open up the case of my K2 in
6 years and now I sort of forgot how the thing works.
Anyway, I am faithfully upgrading my K2 #402, and have gotten to the
part where it is suggested to shorten the ground leads to the 5 crystals
in the cohn filter. I figure this is a good time to replace the
crystals since I bought the 14 crystal replacement pack. However, I
counted nine 4.091 mHz crystals in the K2 and 7 crystals on the ssb
board. This makes 16 crystals if my math is correct.
I assume x7 thru x11 are replaced, but don't know which two of the x3
thru x6 are replaced on the main board. I also assume all 7 of the
crystals on the ssb board are replaced.
I fiqured this must all be explained somewhere, but haven't found it
yet. Advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve, W2MY
