Hey, now what about a custom desktop case made to match the Elecraft K series equipment with slide in/out drawers (lockable via spring loaded screws) so that "one BIG box" shack becomes a reality.
The huge advantage is IF an issue arises, simply 'pull' the defective item from the box and do what needs to be done but still have a somewhat functional rig IF the K3 is not at fault. I might even consider doing this myself so that for portable use I have just one box to pack up when on the move. Maybe a part number could be K3LB-500...:-) K3 = Radio LB = Large Box 500 = Total output power Aaaah...nice to dream eh? Now to think of a way to install a 'swing lifter' to heave the box from storage to desk...:-( 73's Gary On Mon, Dec 13, 2010 at 11:36 AM, Byron Servies <by...@servies.us> wrote: > and then, to make it all weigh more, stick some Dynamat Xtreme in the > boxes.
