It would be pretty easy to modify the CP-1 to use SO239 connectors and mount it 
in a box. I would do it while building the board - drill four holes in the 
corners for mounting, mount the SO-239s on the box and wire them to the board. 
But, I would also keep the BNC connectors for the test connections since Scopes 
and frequency counters usually have those for input jacks.

Interesting project. My CP-1 is built with the BNC connectors and usually have 
adapters attached for the TX IN and Out as needed. It’s a very handy board!
