Is such an elaborate carrying case necessary? To carry my
KX1 around, I use a plastic toolbox I bought on sale at Ace
for 5 bucks. To cushion the KX1, I set it on some of the
pink bubble wrap that Elecraft used to package the kit.
This works pretty well, and there's plenty of room in the
toolbox for tools, a battery pack or small AC supply, the
antenna, headphones, etc.

I also use a Pelican case to house my KX1 when travelling. However I
use a larger 1060 model.
In order to prevent my KX1 from bouncing around in the case, I bought a
black kneeling pad at the dollar store and cut it with a utility knife
so that it would fit in the case. I then cut out a a hole so my KX1
fits into. This prevents it from moving around. I have room for a key,
extra batteries and a wire antenna.
Here is the link to a pic of my set-up.
