I'm glad you like the backlight, Tom.

I was looking at my K1 one day, in poor lighting, beside a nicely-lit 
K2. Pulled out a spare K2 backlight, measured it, and saw immediately 
that One K2 backlight = Two K1 backlights. I cut one in half and put it 
in my K1. (I also put a funky tilt peg on my K1, but that's another 
story, with sordid details of cutting a hole through the middle of the 
RF board and patching it up later.)

As often happens, I later mentioned the mod to Tom Hammond, and he 
*volunteered* to try it and write up an installation sheet. Tom does 
great work, as you've seen.

Having such great customers makes it fun to be in business!
