Use your favorite word processor to do the required lettering, print it on a sheet of the clear labels, cut it to size and stick it on the panel (label has adhesive). You can even add graphics and colors (if you have a color printer). Neat stuff! :-) 72/73, Larry W1HUE ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Date: Sun, 08 Apr 2001 01:58:03 +0100 From: "J.

One way I have labeled things for years is to use a Dymo labelmaker to make the label and then press the label on to some double sided tape. The double sided tape is somewhat thick, it makes the label stand up as if it were done on an engraving machine (i.e. name and callsign tags at a hamfest) and cut the whole package with an Exacto knife or equivalent. When you peel off the opposite side of the double sticky tape, it adheres much better than the Dymo stuff does and it looks like it was done on an engraving machine.
