THE RAMSEY ELECTRONICS CASE, KNOB & HARDWARE OPTION

Your finished receiver can be installed in a variety of enclosures of your own

design and choosing. You might be planning to combine several Ramsey

circuit kit boards in a single enclosure. Use of the inexpensive and attractive

Ramsey case and knob kit will give your unit that finished look and increase its

resale value. These sturdy black instrument cases are supplied with neatly

lettered front and rear panels, knobs, rubber feet and mounting screws.

OTHER ENCLOSURE RECOMMENDATIONS

While we believe that the Ramsey enclosure and knob option is a fine value

for finishing off your Ramsey receiver or transmitter, we are happy to give you

a couple of additional suggestions and our reasons for them. If your first goal

is economy and rugged portability, you will find that the circuit board can be

mounted nicely in a standard VHS videotape storage box, which also gives

room for a speaker, or earphone storage, and even a roll of antenna wire. The

controls are easily mounted at one end of such a box. It may be necessary to

cut away the molded posts which secure the tape cassette itself. These

storage boxes come in several styles, so pick one which looks truly practical

as a project enclosure.

To accomplish RF shielding, the most economical metal enclosure nicely

suited for Ramsey kit boards is Radio Shack No. 270-253A. This metal utility

cabinet can accommodate both a receiver and our AA-7 Active Antenna, plus

speaker, with room for various refinements you might like to add, such as

power supply or larger battery pack, etc.
