John, Those are excellent quality construction photos. Thanks for posting them!
I was hoping to see a close-up of C56, which has no solder pads and is instead soldered directly to pins 2 and 3 of K1. Can you (or anyone else) suggest how to accomplish this step? Is this where hemostats (which I haven't yet acquired) might come in handy?

I have yet to add the 30m/80m mod, but hope to get on with it this month. http://www.flickr.com/photos/shadle/collections/72157600234577810/ (This is a link to a collection of amateur radio photos of mine, but it is easy to find the KX1 photo sets.) Like others have suggested, I decided to install L6 on the bottom side of the board (and there is a photo of that). My major problem during the build was in winding T1. Don't let those wires cross each other! :) Good luck and have fun! It will go quicker than you anticipate (most likely). -john, W4PAH Chapel Hill, NC ____________________________________________________________________________________ 8:00? 8:25? 8:40?
