KAT2 J8 tolerance?

Phillip Heller
Just finished the KAT2 for K2 #6662.

Unfortunately, J8 is just too tight on CTRL P4.  I *might* be able to  
force it on, but it would never come off.

Anyone run into this?

Phil,

Yes, it is a tight fit with those many pins, but it will go on, and it
will come off too.  Make certain all the pins are started before
applying pressure and apply pressure from both ends of the board.
To remove it, 'wiggle' the ends of the boards alternately so it is
removed straight.
It requires less force after 2 or 3 times.

73,
Don W3FPR
