Still drilling, filing, and sawing. It does look
a "bit" more like a radio...
Looking good! I can see this isn't your first radio
or first time at drilling and cutting metal. It had
been a while since I had built anything, and it didn't
really feel like it was started until I started drilling
and cutting holes in the case.
Is that a geared drive connected to the 10-turn pot?
I don't think orientation of the board will make a lot
of difference, but I went with the heat-sink towards
the back. I think that and the way you have it are
the only real choices to keep the connection to the
antenna short inside the case.
Its always nice watching everyone's progress towards
a working radio, so keep the pics coming!
