[Elecraft] Can P3 Be On Top of K3?

Hi Phil,

I had my P3 on top of my K3 for about a year until I got the SVGA card and
added an additional monitor which is now suspended over the K3. There's no
heat build up problem but if the K3 bale is up then I guess the P3 could
slide a bit when pushing P3 buttons. I used some of that rubbery shelf liner
and cut it out for the K3 speaker and vent holes. It kept the P3 from moving
around unless I got very rough with the buttons. I suppose the internal
speaker audio might be lessened slightly. I infrequently use the speaker and
I didn't notice any problem when I did use it.

73,
Mike K2MK
