I looked it over and the only reason you would have to remove the KRX3 is if you had it installed but were only buying one KSYN3A. You must have the same synthesizer installed for both receivers. If you just change out the main receiver's synthesizer, you then must remove both the old 2nd RX synthesizer AND the receiver or you will confuse the K3's MPU and it won't work. That was the gist of the previous thread.

I believe that you should ne able to install both boards without removing the KRX3

First question that came to my mind when I saw the announcement was
whether the KRX3 had to be removed and reinstalled in order to replace the synths. I found installing the KRX3 exasperating when I assembled the K3
- success came on about the 12th try.

My K3 is 100 miles from where I am right now, so I looked at the photos in the K3 assembly manual and those in the new synth instructions, from which it appears that the swap could be done without removing the KRX3. Could
we confirm whether R&R is required? Message below says it is.

If the sub does have to be R&R¹d, anyone have suggestions about how to
reinstall it without the major fuss I experienced?

I talked to Elecraft and you must remove the second receiver not just
unplug it and remove its ?old? synth board. . . .
