I decided to use a fully adjustable mini camera tripod for using the KX1 in the shack. The tripod only stands 3 inches tall or so and it's plenty stable enough for in-shack use...and looks very slick. The KX1 now sports a perfect 45 deg angle and sets on there like a masterpiece painting.
My thought is to get another back panel; that way I'll have one for batteries and one with the tripod...both ready to go anytime. With any luck I'll post a picture on the web later this evening...if anyone wishes to take a look. So far the KX1 is very addictive; even the K1 and K2 are getting lonely. And the Icom's are way past lonely, they're fossilized. 73 John K7FD _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
