RONT PANEL LABEL
A front panel label will add a professional look to the completed transceiver. You can design one
yourself using a graphic design software package or you can simply download a completed
sample from
www.ozQRP.com . If you plan to design your own then use the dimensions shown
in Figure 8 as a guide. Once you have either your own file or the downloaded file follow the
procedure below to produce the label:
1. Print the file using a colour inkjet printer onto an A4 sheet of high quality photo paper.
2. Using a sharp hobby knife and steel rule as a guide cut out the inside area of the LCD
window. Touch up any bare paper edges with a black permanent marker.
3. Laminate the whole sheet using an A4 laminator. If you don’t have your own then this
can be done quite cheaply at large stationary stores. The exciting thing about this is that
the LCD cutout becomes a transparent window.
4. Using the hobby knife cutout the other holes in the label.
5. Cut around the border of the label so that it is the same size as the front panel.
6. Place the label on the front panel and install the pots, LED bezel and microphone socket.
You can use some spray adhesive to secure the label to the front panel if it tends to lift
off, although if using the recommended case it will stay in place once the enclosure is
assembled.
