Hello Greg,

I built mine in two days… But I would not suggest doing that.
I'd say, the fastest you should go might be:
Front panel: One session.
Filter board: One session.
RF board: Two sessions.
Auto tuner: One session.
Tuning & testing: One session.

So, at one session (a few hours) per day, I would say six days is reasonable.

Gil.
