text labelson faceplate of rig


 

I just built a mBitx and put it in an enclosure. None of my controls, or jacks are labeled. where can I find labels for power/tune/mic/phones/key?
I have tried making them on my printer, but the results were atrocious


 

Brother P-touch labeler is a handy tool to have around the shack.

If you've got a way to create SVGs (Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, etc) I could cut a faceplate for you on LaserMark like I did for mine for about $10.

I have been using an Avery product. It is a transparent plastic with an adhesive backing and you can print using either an inkjet or a laser printer. You then just cut the strips where you designed the label, peel the backing, and place on the panel. Really easy, and the results are pretty good. One sheet can produce a ton of labels, too. The product is Avery 4397.

Nice rig OM. I agree the jacks need labels, as I have stuck headphones in a key jack before. Find a larger knob for main tuning, and then no label needed for the controls.

My club site has lots of good info, search for k3pzn ubitx

Thank you


 

I like the stealth mode on my ubitx radios. You have to know how to use it. I have the same thing on the gear shift of my car. No labels. When I was a kid I took off all the labels off of everything.
