Tom,
If you built the KX3, it should be no problem. There is one 2-56 size
screw but the rest are 4-40 size. The #4 lockwasher is the smallest
part, so if you can handle that you will not have a problem.
Download the KXBC3 manual to get an idea of what is involved.

The KXBC3 is very easy to install. As I remember, the trickiest bit was getting
the adhesive shield lined up right before I stuck it on.
Installation instructions are here, starting on page five. You can open up your
radio and look at the screws where it will go. I don’t remember them being
Greetings,
What I didn't order with the KX3 was the internal battery charger. Now
that I have the KX2 and know how handy it is to have the internal battery,
I'm considering getting the KXBC3 for my KX3.
What I need to know is how hard is it to install? I have advanced arthritis
in my fingers
The 2-56 screw that I took off the battery retainer, is that the same screw
I use to hold in th KXBC3 and do I reuse that spacer? If not I must have
the wrong screw in my parts kit. I have two 4-40 by 3/16 and a very tiny
3/16 pan head that does not screw into anything.

Mark,
I believe that the parts list errata for the KXBC3 is wrong. Those are
supposed to be flat head screws. I submitted an error correction on Friday to
Elecraft and got an acknowledgement. Other then that, I did not find anything
awry from the regular assembly instructions.
