[Elecraft] Z90 Panadapter

[John Wiener]

As many of you know, Clifton Laboratories produced a nice panadapter  
in kit form last year. It was in QEX a few months back.   
Unfortunately, it was discontinued after the first run.  I recently  
emailed Jack Smith (of Clifton Labs) and he is working on a Z92 model  
with an LCD display.

Wouldn't this be a nice addition to the K2?  I am hoping that Jack  
and Wayne and Eric can work out a model perhaps with the EC2  
enclosure, either end up or ... a FLIP-UP Screen??  Anyway, I think  
this panadapter in an Elecraft-matched enclosure would do very well.

 From what I've heard the build is technically similar to the K2 in  
terms of difficulty.  I do not know whether there are a significant  
number of SMT components.

I certainly could see a Z92 in my shack in the future.  I certainly  
would enjoy the build, too.

PS, I have no relationship at all with Jack or Clifton Labs...just a  
dreamer.
