[Elecraft] KX1 30/80 Assembly

[Don Wilhelm]

Jay,

The KXB3080 board mounts on the component side of the KX1 just below the 
encoder and to the left side of the bandwidth and AF Gain control bodies 
- it sounds to me like you are trying to mount it on the solder side.

The crystal cans are on the opposite side of the KX1 board from the 
KXB3080 board.  There is no way that the crystals can interfere with the 
board.

73,
