Hi folks, Last night I installed and configured a KX3 2m module following the current instructions on the website (Rev C). My KX3 is a recent factory build. Everything seems to be working fine; I haven't actually tried it on-air yet (need to finish my 2m Moxon), but at least I didn't blow my rig up.
I encountered one difference with the instructions: When installing the LO coax on J4, I could not find any capacitor C120 to avoid. My KX3 simply doesn't have C120 or R81 on that PCB. Has something changed in recent KX3s? The only hard part was the final installation, specifically clamping the heatsink lug properly with retainer TO-220. It seems like the clamping arrangement unavoidably puts the nylon bottom screw at a weird angle. I double-checked the orientation of TO-220 and redid these steps over several times, and couldn't figure out any other way to make it work. Is this right? If so, a clarification in the instructions would help.
