[Elecraft] K2 Front Panel Resistance Check Readings :(

If the reading is actually zero - like when the leads are touched to 
each other, then that is zero ohms, an indication of a short.
OTOH, if the reading is blank or whatever your ohmmeter reads when the 
leads are attached to nothing, then that is an indication of infinite 
resistance or something very high - and that qualifies as greater then 
(> symbol) 100k ohms.
