I'm building my K2, #4759, in page 53.
The fifth step in page is:
"Install the BFO crystals X3 and X4 (near J7). Important: trim X3's
leads, and fold them down flat against their pads, before soldering.
Then use a minimal amount of solder. This is necessary to avoid
interference between X3 and L33 in a later step."
I am not 100% sure what should I do. I have to cut the leads before
soldering. Is it right to leave about 1 mm length of both leads which
then protrude on the bottom of the board. Then you should make a sharp
90 degree right angle to the leads. And then fill the hole with solder?
