Carlos - There are lots of these 103 caps in the kit. From a size
perspective (lead spacing in particular) they are not all exactly the
same. Try different ones and see if you can find one that fits better and
all the way flush with the board. When I built my K2 I was able to find
one that sat flush.

Carlos,
Yes, that is an unfortunate effect of the difficulty in obtaining
thru-hole capacitors. That particular one cannot be bent over because
it will interfere with the PA transistor mounting.
If you also ordered the KSB2 option, there is an extra 0.01uF (10nF)
capacitor in that kit. It has a narrow lead spacing, but can be used to
solve this problem. If no KSB2, then do you have a capacitor that you
can use instead of the one supplied.
