The KX3 has hundreds of SMDs. Many of them are so small that I need a magnifying glass just to find them. Soldering them by hand is tedious and fraught with peril (all of us on the team do it, but we don't enjoy it).
A full kit would be impossible to support and not profitable. Sorry about that. 73, Wayne N6KR On Jun 3, 2011, at 11:25 AM, Tony Estep wrote: > You guys are killing me with this gloomy talk about SMDs. Just last > night I > ordered a Softrock.
