[Elecraft] K3 Resistance Checks

[John, 9H5G]

OK,

I'm at the point where I've completed the construction prior to the initial power on and have a little question on the resistance between U12 and ground. My value is 3.5k ohm. The manual states that some K3s may be only slightly greater than 500 ohms implying that I might expect a value in that area. Clearly 3.5k is much greater. Am I good to go or is my value incorrect?

Thanks!
