Chris,
As the owner of the subject shrunken P3, I can testify that there are no
adverse effects on performance. I just brought it back from yet another
trip to Aruba, and it really is helpful to have it half-sized.

I think there may be some technical issues with shrinking it down.. maybe
just in half is ok but I recall some potential visual artifacts if the
ribbon cable gets too close to the display... its been a couple years
since I build one but I seen to recall...? it may be a bit more complex
than just a smaller box... but I am sure those types of things could be
easily worked out.

Hi Nick,
A P3 was cut in half by Jeff WA6KBL for Andy AE6Y three years ago. You can
see the photos here.

By looking at parts list from P3 manual, perhaps we
can significantly shrink the depth of the unit by making the Top, Bottom
and Side panels (E100362, E100363, and E100361) shorter if Elecraft would
be willing to manufacture and provide such kit. We always have an option
to use the hacksaw but it would not look pretty :-)
