I had one installed some time ago (the original KR5L circuit), and I want to 
mention where NOT to put it:  absolutely do not put it near the plug for the 
counter probe!  I had mine attached with double-sided tape on the side panel 
(this was before I had the DSP, so it probably wouldn't fit there now). 
Harmonics of the square-wave oscillator in the chip were picked up by the 
counter circuit, which made the readings jump all over the place when I tried to 
do CAL FIL.  I went absolutely NUTS before figuring out what the problem was.

So, assuming that you can find a place to put it, check to make sure that it 
doesn't cause RFI to anything.
