[Elecraft] Replacing J93 in K3 S/N 7394 Subreceiver

I have just received a replacement J93 jack for my KRX3.  I broke the
original jack while trying to plug in the miniature coax.

I have removed the KRX3 from the K3. I have removed the top cover of the
enclosure for the KRX3.

Now I am stuck.  The board does not come out of the bottom cover readily
--- I recall it kind of snapped in during the build.  I am afraid to force
it.

I think I need to get to the bottom of the board to do the job.  There
seems to be a pin still stuck in the through-board hole for one of the
pins, and I will have to get it out from the bottom.

One other question.  This jack has 2 pins on the ground side, and one
center pin.  Please describe where they should go on the board.  Nothing is
marked, at least on the side I can see.

Also, just for curiosity, what is J93?    It is a jack with no center pin,
and it seems to connect to nothing in the assembly process.

Tnx de Brian W3BW
