I just installed the backlight mod and it's quite an improvement. Using a Hakko 808 to suck out the old (cut) pins from the original LCD made the job absolutely painless.
The instructions were easy to follow and the backlight was cut well. Thanks Tom! I keep the rig at my bedside and will often switch it on when I can't sleep and the xyl is sleeping just to see what's on the bands. The backlight makes the K1 perfect for this.
