Dave, you are having "reflector-induced panic"! Hundreds of KRX3's have 
been installed without problems, but you only read about the horror 
stories on the reflector.

It takes a few hours to do if you work slowly and carefully, and taking 
the front panel apart is not hard at all. The instructions are good and 
the secret is just to take your time and follow them.

If you assembled the K3 in the first place you should have no trouble. 
There are no 'issues' with the KRX3, and if you have a problem Elecraft 
will help you out.
