So, just to be sure I have this right: If I have the NEW KSYN3A synth in an old K3, and if I still have the OLD KXV3A, then replacing the KBPF3A with the NEW KBPF3B will give me all of the enhanced performance available on 100 - 500 Khz?
I am thinking of replacing the KBPF3 rather than doing the mod on the old one because I have never done surface mount work and in my dotage can¹t trust myself not to make a mess of it; and because shipping the K3 back to the factory for the mod may not be worthwhile compared to just replacing the bandpass filter . . . . due to the down-time. Izzat right, that replacing the bandpass filter now will do it all?
