Re: [Xylo-SDR] Cabinet

starting to make sense. room for a power supply and might include an extender card with one of the 5 card mother boards. gives room on the front panel and rear panel for display, volume control, connectors , power supply and future adds. question on the euro card case is where to put it !!

Maybe it's time to re-think this enclosure business one more time.

How about an SDR-1000 split type case with a MB/bus of whatever design in
the bottom with the cards standing vertically. Card orientation and guides
to be worked out. The main advantage of this design is you can get to the
cards to work on them without having to pull the front panel. Also, there is a good bit of room for power supplies, oscillator(s), etc. Font/rear panels 
could be group buy or roll-ur-own

I never have been crazy about the Euro Card closed case concept. Something
like this makes more sense to me.

Just my 2 cents worth.
