I wish I had more pictures, but this one... http://www.hamradio.me/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/20150627-009.jpg
...from my FD article... http://www.hamradio.me/activities/kx4o-1b-battery-va-field-day-2015.html ...shows a strap of copper running behind all the gear shown roughly following K9YC's advice. I used some 1/4 inch braid I found somewhere, crimped some lugs on each end and connected each chassis to the strap. The RigBlaster connects via one of its case mounting screws. The PX3 and KX3 connect via one of the chassis thumbscrews. Not shown is a 5V linear regulator to power my USB splitter from a Pb equiv. battery. It uses the copper strap as the heatsink. This works quite well. I've never encountered the noisy conditions that Jim's steps help mitigate, but I think it is a good idea regardless.
