K3 subreceiver update, including photos

Hi all,

We've just posted two photos showing how the KRX3 subreceiver module
looks installed in the K3:

The new two-piece shield completely encloses the subreceiver, providing
a high degree of isolation between it and the main receiver. You'll be
able to listen to extremely strong signals in one receiver without it
leaking into the other's I.F., and vice-versa.

The shield will be bright plated for production. It's shown unplated in
this photo.

Wayne, am I right in thinking the stiffener bar has been removed for  
these shots, but is reinstalled once the KRX3 is in place?
