K3 Upgrades - Order of Installation

Edward A. Dauer
 I am about to install the KXV3B, the KIO3B, and the KBPF3 upgrade in my K3.  [The new synths have already been installed.}  I remember seeing a thread here some months ago about the best order in which to do those installations, but I have not been able to find it in the archives.  Any advice from those who have done these three at more or less the same time?  Thanks in advance.

Ted, KN1CBR

Re: K3 Upgrades - Order of Installation

Ted,

If you have the KRX3 subreceiver installed, it will have to come out for
the KBPF3 upgrade.  So leave it out until the other upgrades are
installed - there is more "finger room", and there is no other logical
reason.

Install the KXV3B before the KIO3B simply because the KXV3 is below the
KIO3.

These are physical access reasons rather than electrical/functional
reasons.  For electrical/functional purposes, it makes no difference in
the desired order.

73,
Don W3FPR
