[hpsdr] Enclosure for the HPDSR

[Ronald Cox]

Phil,
If I mounted the Atlas panel on the vertical panel behind where the  
Hard drives are mounted,
there is an area 5X9X10" for the Atlas panel and cards and the filter  
boards and 100 watt amp could go in an area in front of that which is  
5X9X4.25" with no fans. I tried to look up the dimensions of the Atlas  
board, but could only find the photo which is larger than life on my  
screen per the dime next to it. Would that work?
