I went online and downloaded and printed my own assembly manual.  I had read
it completely twice before my K3 arrived.  I could not have done this if I
had to wait for a printed manual to come with my radio and most likely would
not have read it as carefully as I did waiting for my K3.  I was not in a
rush to get-er-done.  I learned a lot studying the assembly instructions
without having the radio parts to look at and many times I had to read a
passage carefully more than once to understand what they were talking about
since I could not look at the part or area of the radio pictured.  I would
not want to bypass the experience and knowledge gained by printing my own
instructions.  I did not use the book that came with the radio as I had a
newer one downloaded that had just been released when my radio arrived.
