Steve,
The *only* step I would recommend in preparation for the KXB3080
installation is to mount L6 on the bottom side of the board.
Certainly you *can* leave out the other components, but then the KX1
cannot be tested until you complete the KXB3080 install. The KXB3080
requires very careful work in tight places. The instructions are
correct, and if you follow them *exactly* you will have success, but
many builders have trouble.
If you are an experienced builder, and can read and follow a schematic
should you have trouble, and are reasonably adept at troubleshooting,
then you could consider moving directly to the KXB3080 - but if you do
not have complete confidence in all those abilities, do as the
instructions indicate and build the base KX1 first so you can test that
piece.
73,
Don W3FPR

Is there a recommended, supported way to incorporate the kxb3080 option from
the very start, so that the redundant/throw-away work can be avoided? Are
there revised assembly instructions for such an approach?
Thanks.
