Don:

Thanks again.  Good news.  And thanks for the hint I do have the k60xv to
install so this is a big help.  I am kind of going by guess and by golly on
what order I install things.  I have started with the KAT2 and had planned
to move to the SSB2, but I may do the 160m accessory first.  Suggestions
always appreciated.
