Yes, the resistor is valid.

Have fun building!

Eric, 
  
You ever sleep?  ;-) 
  
Thanks so much for the info on the J73 pin plug.  By golly, on closer observation, I now see that the related hole for the clipped pin (P73-J73) is indeed plugged, and that would certainly "key" things up if one were to try to install the KYSN3 backwards.  I guess I'll just chalk that oversight up to too little light, too old eyes, and too late in the day for me. 
  
As an aside, I also noticed a leaded resistor (maybe 1.5M ohm - old eyes again) soldered in between (near) C13 and C69 on the KSYN3 board.  I don't see this in any photos either.  Am I good-to-go with this little fellow added on?  Knowing you guys, I bet I am. 
  
Thanks ever so much for your personal interest in helping me on this.  You guys have just one amazing enterprise there.  Thanks again.  73
