If anyone in the group has recently constructed this receiver, I've
got a few questions.
Please contact me off list.

Ben,
If the KMD150 is similar to the SkyMap IIIC this is a very simple thing to do.
(for those intereseted, I have attached the instructions for the SM IIIC)
Even for non-techies (like myself) it won't take much more than 20 minutes.
Marcel

What ever will fit for you. There are no "standard
practices" driven by switch size. There are human
factors issues that usually speak to manipulation
by the fingers without operating more than one
switch . . . and the size of placard lettering.
I don't think we ever used smaller than 1/8" high,
Futura bold style lettering. We did a little study
here on the list where someone was contemplating all
miniature switches to "save panel space". As it turned
out the human factors issues drove limitation that
saved only about 5-10% of total panel area for having
"gone miniature". Going any tighter only made the
switches problematic to operate and/or the placard
lettering too small.
I'm in Wichita this week and away from my Medicine
Lodge data base (maybe I need to try that GoToMyPC
service). But I think the drawings I've published
for exemplar panel layouts with full sized switches
used 0.8" spacing.
There's a fabrication tool that you might consider
for helping you lay out the holes. Somewhere in my
tools I have a piece of steel bar about .1" thick,
1" wide and 5" long with a two rows of #30 holes.
One row is for the switch bushing centers, the
second row is for the anti-rotation tabs.
The drill fixture has 5 sets of holes. You can
drill your first hole in the panel and then Cleco
the fixture to the panel such that the hole at
the other end lines up on the bushings centerline.
Then drill the 5th switch hole.
Install another Cleco and drill the remaining
8 pilot holes. Then use Clecos to move the fixture
two holes at a time along the remainder of the
row of switches. I had the drill fixture made
on a vertical mill with a digital readout. It
offers a way to produce very accurately spaced
hole patterns of any length.

No comments needed. I think this tableau speaks

Try this first. It is actually much easier than it first appears.

I had drilled holes 3/4" on center for my switches. The bigger 2-10
switches fit, but with very little room between them.
Is there a minimum space between switches required?
Thanks for the help.

Yes, room for the replacement switch when the original fails and are
no longer available. It's happened before it will happen again.
If the wire crimp(s) can be mounted on the terminals and not touch by
some reasonable clearance, I would think that would be acceptable
- only exception might be switch controlling very high current loads
which may warm up some.
