[Elecraft] KPA100 right angle pin insertion

Hello All-

I've been trying to insert the right-angle PCB pins into the red/ 
black housings.

Unless the drawings are wrong, it looks like the pins protrude from  
the top of the
assembly. I find this impossible to achieve because of a bent-up  
catch on the top
of the pins which prevent them from even entering the shells at the  
top, and when
I try to push the pin in from the bottom of the opening, they won't  
go in, and if they did,
wouldn't  match the diagram.

Should I clip off the top bent-up piece on the pin?

A push in the right direction would be appreciated.

73,


Jeff
