Hi,
I'm putting mine in a 3U eurocard rack module. Then I can put it in a 19" rack 
in the workshop or a portable half rack. I've already got an Oncore rx and TVB 
divider in modules. I pick up surplus kit and re-cycle the hardware. In the 
past I've built many items into old HP cases. Odd items like 600R attenuators 
are good because they are of little value. Units with meters are a problem 
because the meter is a structural part of the front panel. It's not easy to 
make a new panel, but re-use of existing holes and a bit of automotive body 
filler backed up with some aluminium
 tape works well. I hate to admit it but I have a very nice PSU that's built 
into an HP box that used to ave some weird "degausser" in it........
In my defence I'd not heard of a high performance Caesium tube 20 years ago.

Robert G8RPI.
