Would someone be so kind as to take some measurements of the KAT100-1 Antenna
Tuner:

The horizontal distance between the center of the Antenna 1 SO239 connector
(J5) and the center of the Antenna 2 SO239 connector (J6).

The horizontal distance, parallel to the back panel, from the center of the
Antenna 2 SO239 connector (J6) to a projection of the outer edge of the left
side panel. In other words, how far in is the center of the Antenna 2 SO239
connector from the outside edge of the left side panel?

The horizontal distance, parallel to the back panel, between the center of
 the Antenna 1 SO239 connector (J5) and the vertical center line of the
 ground screw (E1).

I am building a new feed-through panel and want to make it line up properly
with a KAT-100-1 which I have not yet purchased. There will be short runs (2
inches or so) of coax between the feed-through panel and the tuner, so the
measurements don't have to be exact. The coax will compensate for a slight
offset.

Thanks in advance!

1.41" +/- 0.03"
Note that this is also the distance from the center of the Antenna 1 SO239
connector (J5) and the center of the Input SO239 connector (J4)

To clarify the left panel is the panel as viewed from the front of the
KAT100-1. The measurement does not include the height of the screw heads.
0.83" +/- 0.08"

2.33" +/- 0.08"
>From the Input SO239 connector (J4): 0.92" +/- 0.08"

The slight error range in measurements will easily be accommodated by the
short coax and ground wire connections of about 1 1/2 to 2 inches in length.
Thanks again and 73,
