I would encourage going the kit route if a person has any ability at all. Its very simple to build following instructions, and took me about 6 hours. I was pleased with the fit of parts and panels and how fast the radio went together. And as many have said it makes upgrading or changing boards a lot more friendly if you have seen the insides apart before. For my 200 bucks I added a CW filter and transverter card. Factory built is a real good deal for guys who dont have time or ability, so both sides come out on top. Performance is the same either way.
