The KXV3 boards are a tight fit. I've had mine in and out a few times
(replaced blown pin diodes) and finally figured out that I needed to
file the square cutout in the frame a bit at the top corners in order to
let the BNC jacks clear; I rounded the corners slightly with a needle file.
Also, depress the board you are plugging into; there is a bit of flex
which may give you enough clearance.

Having problems with install of the KXV3B upgrading from a KXV3A.
The pins are two long on the KXV3B, with BNC connectors up as far as they will
go in the rear slot?
I tried putting the pins in tilting the board with the BNC connectors not out
of the slot, it was too much of an angle, they will not go in?
I guess I can cut the pins shorter on the KXV3B but wanted to check on that
first.
Any help would be appreciated. thank you 73
