On-yomi and kun-yomi variations in the Conning kanji selections

This is an unusual sequence in Conning's KKLC ; you may note that 3 have no on-yomi in Conning and 4 have no kun-yomi but this will not always match the more complete Halpern 2013 2nd ed. KKLD ( the second column of id's) or a book such as Henshall. Conning's book is focussed on learning the BASIC meanings of his 2,300 kanji (Halpern has 3,002.)
