[Elecraft] K1 kit not showing resistance values at test points

[Don Wilhelm]

Andy,

On the ohmmeter range, for the most accurate reading, use the scale that 
is just above the resistance value you are expecting.  In other words, 
if you are expecting greater than 10k ohms, use the 20k scale.
or if you are expecting less than 1k, use the 2k range.

If you are using a meter with auto-ranging, pay attention to the range 
indicated.  If there is any confusion, switch to manual ranges.
