KIO2 assembly

Tom Zeltwanger
It looks to me that the KIO2 manual does not tell you which side of P1 (long or
short pins) goes through the holes in the AUX PC board. Since all of the others
in the K2 and KPA100 use the short pins, I am assuming that will work. It is
also a VERY tight fit - maybe the holes are a little too small.

I did not enjoy the soldering of the brass nuts to the DB9 connector at all. It
was hard to get any solder to stick to the nuts, and when I did get it done, the
alignment of the nut with the hole in the connector is not good (should probably
mention in the manual that you have to be careful to get the standoff tight so
they can not move until soldering is done). Seems like a better solution for
that would be in order.

73,
