[Elecraft] KX3 Remove plastic film on display?

[Thomas Horsten]

Kevin,

I thought "that's got to be something I peel off" and then as I started and
all the segments blurred out in black as I peeled it off I thought "damn,
that was wrong, bye bye LCD". Luckily I was wrong :)

A note in the assembly guide might provide reassurance.
