Dunno anything more specific *Bdale *other than the thickness of the sled and the standoffs necessary to allow the usb and so forth to clear the sled (with some additional margin of "safety" added in) seems sufficient. I lucked into a 'good enuf' clearance just doing the mounting as I would do normally. More specifically my notes are too meager to know exactly what was at issue.....or I cannot find anything more specific in my notes at this time. Sigh. On a cool note .... I just snagged C6AKQ on 14.0225 MC with 4 watts !! .... Made my afternoon. Vy 72 de; - Bob F. (w9ya) P.S.... There might be something more specific if'n you have an irc "dump" and you care to peruse it for any info I might have spouted out when I was doing the 'flight' testing ala my brake-bleeder/altitude chamber goodie.
