Looking for a PCB

Hello Bill.
LA3FY and KI4PSR both did W8TEE pc boards.? LA3FY sent me the gerbers for his but KI4PSR never shared.? As I recall,? the KI4PSR board was quite large by comparison.
Hmmm. I don't have the LA3FY PCB. Maybe that's the one.
I have the W8BH, the KI4PSR and a third by KS4NS but, as
I said, they are all too big to fit in the box. I have
a completed W8BH and it works like a charm. I am hoping
to revive my morse skills after several decades of inactivity.
(My last CW contact was as DA1WO back in 1978!!) But I
really want to build all of them.

I am also building 2 of W8BH MCT designs (1 of each).? How much would you charge for the enclosures for them?
Charge? Have no idea. Do people really do that? :-)
What color(s) would you want? I have a blue one I haven't
used cause one of the boards I bought came with a black
enclosure of its own. And I have other colors of filament.

Oddly enough this 3 city area libraries do not offer 3D printing nor do they have a single Maker or computer book and yet the area has one of the highest per capita PHD populations in the country!
Probably because libraries as anachronistic. I, personally, have
not been in a library in over 15 years that I can remember and I
used to work at a University in the building right next door to
the library. I think at this point it would be pretty much impossible
for a library to keep up to date books on computer related stuff
on their shelves and with the existence of the web, why bother.

As I recall, I did start a KI4PSR board but gave up on it when W8BH came out with his designs and layouts.
I have a completed KI4PSR board but haven't put it in a box yet.
Will soon, though.

I hope that helps.
I guess I need to look around for the LA3FY PCB. Could you send me
the gerbers?

Good luck.
