[Elecraft] K3S RJ-45 Pin Alignment

[Don Wilhelm]

Byron,

There is a latch on the RJ-45 plug - if the plug is inserted 
sufficiently, you will hear a slight click when it is fully inserted.  
Once latched, it will not fall out.

You may have to move the boot back a bit and push on the plug assembly 
itself to get it to latch.  Once latched, move the boot back into place.
