[Elecraft] Using Digital VM? (Control Board K2 # 5422)

[Mike WA8BXN]

The purpose of resistance checks is not to detect and diagnose all errors
but rather to prevent the release to the magic smoke contained in components
when you apply power.

I've always been confused by this kind of direction.
For example:
 
101k is also greater than 100K, but what's better:
101k or infinity? Infinity could also indicate an
unsoldered circuit board connection or that someone
inserted a capacitor where a resistor should have
gone.
