[Elecraft] K3 and Power Poles

[Jim Brown]

I've done a lot of these. The simple solution is to strip enough of the 
insulation so that the completed pin fits into the housing.

Also -- "zip cord" is a lousy choice for use in a ham station. Twisted 
pair is FAR better, because it inherently resists RF coupling.
