Hi Alan, I just got some new filters to fit in my K3s so I just took it apart. I hope that the K3s and K3 panel sizes are the same - I don't know for sure. Here are the measurements for the K3s anyway:
Left side panel - 3 hole centers for the 2m module are 3.245", 5.175", and 4.775" from the front edge of the panel, and they are all 0.655" down from the top edge of the panel. ANT3 BNC connector (2m ANT) hole center on fan panel is 0.460" from the left side of the fan panel (as you look at the rear of the rig) and 0.900" down from the top edge of the fan panel. Cut-out in the top rail starts 0.425" from the outside surface of the left-hand end of the rail and ends at 3.375" from the same reference point. Hope this helps!

Unfortunately the cost of new parts from Elecraft is out of proportion with the purchase (expensive) so I want to modify the panels he’s sent. Unfortunately Elecraft don’t have a published template. Can someone help me out with the placement of the 3 fixing holes for the K144XV in the LH side panel, the placement of the 2 metre Ant socket hole in the fan panel and possibly the start and end of the cut-out in the cross panel stiffener. Obviously I need the measurements to be very accurate, but I could probably manage with the placement of just one of the holes in the side panel (I can work the rest out from the K144XV side panel) and the hole placement in the fan panel. I don’t need the actual size of the holes, just distances to centres. Thanks in advance. 73, Alan.
