[Elecraft] Mounting the KAT100-1 under the K2?

[Tom Althoff]

It would be nice if there were side panels to do that plus a modified top
cover on the KAT100-1 with recessed cups for the 4 feet of the K2 to drop
down into so that when all was said and done the radio/tuner would become
one unit, solid side panels and flush with no gap between them along the
front mating edge.   And wouldn't it be cool if the IO buss could be passed
down directly into the KAT-100 instead of tying up the DB-9 connector at the
back of both units.
