Dick,

I would suggest that the most straightforward  answer is to order the 
KPA100UPKT and build from the latest manual on the Elecraft website.  Be 
certain you have the latest shield kit (the one with the two soldering 
lugs on the corner near the SO-239).

If you have trouble sorting the parts according to the new manual, then 
the second best course of action is to build the KPA100 according to the 
original manual and then adding the upgrades after the build is complete.
