[Elecraft] KX3 supplemental heat sink offering

[fredem]

This morning two matters were brought to my attention, that require your
input to give me direction:
1. The matter of Cooler KX color in summer deployments especially in very
warm areas like Texas, Florida, the Mediterranean countries. I have already
manufactured prototypes of a Cooler KX-T for tropical, desert, and any other
high heat environs. The question that was asked this morning was whether I
would consider offering the heat exchanger in White Powder coated finish. It
depends on your response whether this could fly. Who would order a white
heat exchanger? as an alternative, would a flat plate machined to fit the
mounting holes be of interest? This could be coated white. In addition to
shading the heat exchanger, it would change your open fins into a ducted
design further improving the heat removal by slow low pressure convection.
It would be removable for show and tell.
2. I was asked to see if there was interest in having me provide custom cut
GapPad heat transfer pads for those of you who dislike heat transfer grease
as much as I do.
You may discuss this on the forum and also email me directly. Thanks, Fred,
VE7FMN
