| The enclosure in a raw state - plastic protection, no panel holes yet. All Aluminium plates and profiles are 2 mm thick and all nuts and bolts are stainless steel. |
About logic: There will be one DC connector with 5 poles. Three different DC cords will be assembled. Of course, you can use one at a time, for different purposes. Cable 1 is for 12V DC sources. The 12 V DC will be lead to the internal linear 7805 converter. In this case, you can run either one of the receivers, or both simultaneously. Cable 2 is for 5 V DC sources which feed either one of the receivers - running two receivers is not enabled. Cable 3 is also for 5 V DC sources, but by short-cutting two poles of the chassis jack, running both receivers simultaneously is enabled. The latter is meant for using 5 V power supplies that are powerful enough to feed both receivers simultaneously.

| Some switching and feeding logic |
But as always: I may as well change everything while building the thing. And as long as it is a hobby project, everything is allowed!
Next step will be: A copper plated epoxy carrier board will be placed onto the bottom plate of the enclosure; This will be the underlayment for all circuitry. This underlayment will be galvanically connected to the enclosure at one single earth point.
