You know, I was thinking the same thing just a few days ago, inspired by the
same Tellun double row panels. A 1.5 wide module would likely enable two
rows of PKES70 knobs, .855 inch in diameter, compared to 1.01 for PKES90
MOTM standard and .748 for PKES60 "Encore" size. The PKES70 seems like a
good knob size compromise, though the extra panel mounting holes for a 1.5U
panel might be unsightly since there won't be mounting rail holes for offset
screws.
