My radio will have the 30/80 board and the tuner when I am done - (i.e. I have both).

Thanks and 73,

They are for two separate components.  KX1 1.02 is for the base KX1.
KXAT1 1.2 is for the KXAT1 ATU.  If you have the ATU option, probably
good to get it. They're for different components so they have different
dates. If you don'thave the KXAT1 option, you have no place to put the
upgrade so skip it.

Good luck with your KX1.  I finally sold mine, got too old and feeble to
manage the sort of expeditions and SOTA activations I used it for.  It's
a really fun little radio.
