I have an unbuilt KX1, with the 3080 kit. Should I try to build it all
at once, or is it better to unsolder things and add the 3080 after the
KX1 is running OK? I would have hoped for a manual describing the build
INCLUDING the 3080. Is there one around?

I just finished building my KX1 including the ATU and 3080 modules. I
did it step by step, first building the basic KX1, then the ATU, then
the 3080. I found that doing it that way gave me a better feel for how
the whole thing worked as a unit, and it wasn't too hard to modify the
original KX1 to make everything work. Not to mention winding the 2 extra
toroids was great practice for when I save up enough for a K2 :)
I would recommend reading all the instructions for each module before
starting though, as it gives a better idea of where you may run into
problems fitting the modules later. The basic KX1 manual does a great
job of warning about that as well.
Have fun with it, I sure did!
