Steve,

If the torroid is rubbing against the standoff and you cannot "gently"
adjust the torroid so that it is not touching, place a piece of heatshring
tubing over the standoff.  Touching is not a problem provided there is no
wearing of the enamal on the torroid.  Putting the heatshring over the
standoff will avoid any problem even if the enamal is worn.

The problem with eHam reviews is not the reviews themselves, but that
folks get too caught up in caring about other people's mostly subject
impressions/opinions.

Remember: Everyone's entitled to an opinion, but that doesn't mean
that everyone's opinion should be given equal weight.

Now, back to assembling my K3.  Anyone else have clearance problems
with the KBPF3 standoff, and the torroid?
