Dear OMs and Yls,
I just took delivery of a KX1 purchased used. I am most impressed with
the small radio and have now made four QSOs with fellow EUs running 4 Watts
to a 4 el SteppIR at 24M. Well the test will come when I change over to a

Good morning, Doug. You can not use the KX3PD paddle directly with the
KX1 because the KX3PD is a two point mount and uses a very

chose not to acquire. I used the frame to homebrew a tiny touch paddle,
but that was just for fun. It worked very nicely,but required a button
battery that I didn't want to have to depend on when camping. I settled

Hi Eric,
I thought of the palm mini but like the idea of a paddle attached to the
KX1/KX3. We agree the KX1 paddle sucks. Sorry Elecraft, I have an awful

Don, thanks! 6-32 did fit but with a little wobble. I just went
downstairs and ran a known 6-32 nut up a known 6-32 stud and it also
