Craig, You are correct, the K160RX should take you only about 2 or 3 hours total depending on how proficient you are at removing the heat sink from the PA transistors.
(Tongue planted firmly in cheek) You might want to make a major mechanical job out of attaching the BNC connector the rear panel - you could work like a person who is 'all thumbs' and take quite a long while geting the hex nut started straight on the connector body threads or something like that <G> - little efforts like that can increase your build time considerably (assuming that is a worthy goal). (Tongue normal) Have a great time installing the rest of your preferred K2 options, and then enjoy operating it. We all must take a break from the build process at one time or another (at least my wife says that should be true!!!). You could always buy another K2 and start over. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > > I just finished building and installing the KNB2 andK60XV option > boards.
