Michael, While the order does not matter if you follow the KXB3080 instructions 'to the letter', be aware that there are some close clearances between the tuner parts and the low pass filter board on the KXB3080. This situation requires that the Low Pass Filter board be positioned 'just so' - yes, the instructions call things out perfectly, but it is easier to detect mispositioning of the LPF board if you have the tuner built and do a trial installation as the KXB3080 instructions call out.
Build the tuner first just because there is less chance of error when you build the KXB3080. This is high density construction, so work carefully. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > I currently have the bare bones KX1.
