KX1 KXB3080 awe

John Shadle
Finally got around to starting on the addition of the KXB3080 to KX1
#1601 last night and just wanted to comment on what a fun experience it
is so far.

First of all, it was interesting to open up the KX1 and look at the work
I had completed previously. I know that my kit-building and soldering
skills have improved immensely since the initial build...especially with
regard to winding toroids.

I finished wiring the KXB3080 board and soldering it to the main board.
The fit of the little PCB is quite clever--as clever as the KXAT1 fits
on the main board and within the tight quarters of the case. Great job,
Elecraft!

Can't wait to finish up the work tonight by building the LPF board and
aligning everything!

While I no longer have my KX1, the one I had was done up with every option.  I
too was quite admiring of the job they did jamming it all in there.  And, while
it pales in comparison to the design of such a product, I likewise got to be
impressed with myself and my ability to put it all together.

David, k3tue
