[Elecraft] unused holes in K60XV

John,

If my guess is right, there will be no component silk-screened markings at
these holes - those are 'via holes' and are used to carry the PC trace from
one side of the board to the other - no components are to be inserted in
those holes.  A solder pad may also be used for the dual purpose of a via
hole and a connection.
