[Elecraft] KX1 and Palm paddles

[Norm Havercroft]

Palm paddles are ideal for use with the KX1, especially if you are left
handed.  The best trick for attachment is to glue a strip of rubberized
magnet material commonly used for refridgerator magnets or car door signs
along the left side (or on the front side for you "normal" folks) which will
give the Palm something to stick to; provided you have the magnetic base
option on your paddle.  I am also experimenting with putting the magnet
material inside the case.  Plenty of room along the battery case but need to
figure out clearances around the standoff and power plugs.  I will update on
my success or failure there.

I also am making up a new cord for the Palm with a right angle plug that
will fit snuggly around the back and up under the rig.

I should also say that I have and enjoy the KXPD1.  It is a very inovative
design and fun to use.
