[hpsdr] Pandora Enclosure Project Proposal.

[Ben Hall]

Hi Grady,

Wow, great!  Just took a look at your webpage, some nice work and good 
ideas there.

A PC case is one possible solution for an HPSDR case.  The slots are 
already there, there is already a home for a power supply, and drive 
bays provide great places to mount displays, controls, or whatever you 
might want to mount.

I've been looking for something a little smaller,  as there seems to be 
a lot of room left over when an HPSDR is mounted in a standard ATX PC 
case.  I've not yet found a case that has six slots that doesn't leave a 
lot of empty space in the case.

Not that space is bad, by no means!  It's just that some folks might not 
have room for a PC case.  I'm a good example - my shack is out of room 
and a PC case just won't fit.

I will continue to pursue the PC case solution.  If there are cases out 
there that would fit the bill, I'll happily take a look!

thanks much and 73,
