Josh,
I would love to see some pics. I was thinking of going with black
semi-translucent panels that could give me some easy access and be easy to cut

Could make for an interesting project. I just getting tired at looking
at a LORAN unit that I never use — I don’t even think they are transmitting
LORAN anymore.
All the best,
Edd
