[Elecraft] K2 Control & Front Panel Resistence Checks...Do my numbers jive?

David,

Sorry to be crass, but if you do not understand ">" (greater than) or a 
range of allowable resistances, I cannot be of much help.  I examined 
the first 6 of your readings and found them to be within the values that 
are specified in the manual.  I do not desire to go any further and 
check all your measurements.  If you have readings that are out of the 
range listed in the manual, then I will certainly be responsive, but in 
those forst 6 readings, all seems to be OK.

73,

I have a Meterman multimeter.  When the probes are crossed, 0.4 or 0.5 Ohms are considered "zero" or "ground" on my meter.  I am getting some infinite readings on my meter, even on the 2000k Ohm setting.  I just get a "1" at the beginning and nothing else...I am guessing that is infinite.  I checked the board for unsoldered components, solder bridges, and the like, and found nothing.
