[Elecraft] A an old-new KX1 build

Hello,

I bought an un-built KX1 complete with autotuner, 30meter, and keyer. At
just over $350, I figure it was a good buy.

It is a bit sad to look at the original invoice, as the purchaser became a
SK before he had time to assemble the radio.

I have the requisite skills and equipment to build the kt, but I was
wondering what may have changed since this kit was shipped (May of 2004)
and today.  Are there any changes or upgrades that might be considered wise
before I start the assembly process?

I am aware that there is now a 30/80 meter board that is available. Does
this impact my build with an eye to the future?

I've also written to Elecraft, but trying to cover all bases before I heat
up the iron.

Much thanks.. Paul
