Re: [Elecraft] K3 Field CASE & PORTABLE QRp +Battery

2008-06-26 Thread Bill NY9H

I was somewhat fearful of taking my K3 to field day without "protection".
we all know how important that is these days. :)

So I made a "field case" for th K3 ...  and one for a pair of  7ah 
batteries

all fits into pelican 1520

Aside from a minor concern of not adequately cooling the right side 
panel with the

pair of regulators mounted...( wayne??),  I think I covered all the bases

Still working on 'finishing' the case and integrate a pair of 
speakers in the lid...



take a look

Bill,

Looks good!

As long as you are not going to operate the radio while wrapped in the 
wooden sheath, it ought to protect it nicely.


The DSP depends on reasonable airflow around the top and bottom of the 
case towards the front for cooling.


As you note, the right side panel must have air for cooling the 
regulators -- especially if a second receiver is installed.
