And much of that space in the P3 is reserved for P3 add-ons that are in development.
Maybe most current list members never built a K2 and noted how empty the finished box was - at first! And, of course, a K3/10 without any options looks awfully empty too. I rather like the idea of an external power supply. It doesn't need to occupy table-top space; mine sits on a box under the desk. And many want an "uninterruptable" supply made up of a battery that is charged from the mains or a solar panel that allows station operation up to 100 watts output in the event of a mains power failure. And there are those (like me) who avoid "switchers" on general principles. I've already got enough gadgets all over the house producing prodigious digital disquiet only somewhat curbed by enclosures, shielding, chokes, and the like. 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- I think that you could possibly put a switcher in the P3 but I don't think it is practical. You would need a cooling fan in their for a 20 to 25 amp supply and I don't think the P3 is set up to handle a fan. 73, phil, K7PEH ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
