I have purchased a KX1 kit along with the 8030 board and ATU kit. I 
want to do initial assembly incorporating the 8030 board (why put 
things in just to take them out?) I have built five other single-band 
rigs over the years so it's not a skill-testing question, just 
wondering if there are any gremlins I can't spot in blending the two 
sets of instructions. The ATU appears to be just a matter of pulling 
jumpers out of the female sockets to make way for the pins. It's the 
business of not installing L1 and L2 off the top and various Cap 
changes that makes me ask if it's better to make friends with 
desoldering wick instead. Comments?
