[GreenKeys] My First Model 28

[Jack]

The Skintight cabinet fits over a standard 28 keyboard or RO base. It has

an associated bottom plate that the 28 bases bolt to. Some Skintights have an

extended baseplate out the back that can hold a standard LESU (with its own cover).

OK - it must be a skintight RO cabinet with keyboard, rather than the skintight KSR cabinet I am familiar with.
I didn't know you could do that.....The great thing about being so ignorant is that I learn something new every day! Neat! 
Mark, there might be a part number with color code stenciled inside the cabinet - if so, I am curious.

Hi gang. What is this cabinet called? The back half looks like a skintight KSR but the keyboard section doesn't. 

 

Have fun, Mark, and thanks for the photos.

Thanks to David Reid W6KL, I picked up my first Model 28 KSR today. I haven't applied power yet, but it looks pretty clean, and everything seems to be moving smoothly when I turn the motor by hand. I posted a few pictures of it on my blog:
