I can't figure out why they are charging 5 bucks for 2 resistors in the K3 I/O OUTPUT BUFFER KIT, when they are giving away the parts for the rest of the upgrades for just the price of the postage. Are these two resistors gold plated or something? I just used a spare 15K 5% leaded resistor I had in my parts box.
Shouldn't that be a give away too Eric?

Well, I ended up ordering the DSP upgrade board today, plus a few other items. Everything came to a little under 200 dollars including shipping. Here's what I ordered: BNC-MM $6.95 1 Male-Male BNC K3DSPUPGD $89.95 1 K3 DSP Upgr. Swap K3IOBUFFKT $5.00 1 K3 I/O Output Buffer Kit XG2 $79.95 1 3 Band 1-uV and 50-uV Rcv. Te I figured the XG2 would be a good thing to have around as well. I can finally get around to properly calibrating my s-meter. Slightly OT question though; you know the 1 wire mod that's used to protect the front end? Where can I buy the type of wire required? I think it's Kynar... whatever it is, its insulated, solid-conductor wire that's around 22 guage. When I performed this mod several months ago, I had a few of those small, pre-cut and pre-tinned solid conductor wires included in breadboard electronic kits, and I used one that was the right length. I like to buy a spool of this stuff though for a few more breadboard projects I'm working on.
