[Elecraft] Option building question

Yep, I was thinking of the 30 meter board. I retract my original statement
and wholeheartedly concur with Don 

It's easier if the KXAT1 is installed first so you can check the fit as Don
observed.

Michael,

While the order does not matter if you follow the KXB3080 instructions 'to
the letter', be aware that there are some close clearances between the tuner
parts and the low pass filter board on the KXB3080.  This situation requires
that the Low Pass Filter board be positioned 'just so' - yes, the
instructions call things out perfectly, but it is easier to detect
mispositioning of the LPF board if you have the tuner built and do a trial
installation as the KXB3080 instructions call out.

Build the tuner first just because there is less chance of error when you
build the KXB3080.

This is high density construction, so work carefully.
