I am waiting on my KRX3 (backordered since July '07) but decided to check my
K3 for the value of R91.
My K3 s/n 559 had 100 ohms for R91. I removed the existing 0603 sized
resistor and replaced it with an 0805 size 22 ohms that I had on-hand. (The
method I usually employ for resistors and caps is to use two soldering
irons, one in each hand. Observing through an Opti-visor, heat both ends of
the component simultaeously, and gently lift it off the board.)The pads on
the PC board are large enough to allow the used of the 0805 component.
I had no difficulty performing this mod. I look forward to installing the
KRX3 once it arrives.
