Yeah, I encountered that issue myself. You’ll need to crib up something yourself. The thread is 4-40 pitch. The size of the threaded hole ought to be documented somewhere.

Most of them have a "tool" (card) to determine screw and thread sizes - use it and buy the appropriate thumbscrew or other fastener. To help you a bit, I would say that the screw thread is either 4-40, 6-32 or 8-32 - those are the commonly used sizes. Yes, there may be an Elecraft thumbscrew. Once you determine the size, look through the KX3 assembly manual to see if there is a match in thread size. 73, Don W3FPR On 12/2/2018 7:48 PM, eric norris via Elecraft wrote: > I rigged a camera mout arm to my recumbent trike.
