NO! You can remove the 40-15 board and then plug the 80/17 board in and
replace the KAT1 tuner. Don't forget the reprogram the two "new" bands and
you are in business. If you need to work anything on 40 thru 15, then you
have to change the RF board again and reprogram the CPU again for the "new"
4 bands again. The reprogramming instructions are in the user's manual and
easy to do after you do it once or twice.
I have a K1 that has two extra 2 band boards. One covers 160 and 80, and
one that covers 80 and 40. The 80/40 band is the board that usually gets
used most. My 4 band board is setup for 40, 30, 20, and 15 like yours. You
will enjoy the K1 very much. I didn't get the internal battery option
because I didn't like the smaller loudspeaker. I usually have a 10 battery
box for 2 ampere/hour NiMH cells externally'
Have fun!
