[Elecraft] WTB tilt stand--K1

[Keith Hamilton]

Yes, some type of wire bale would definitely be on my shopping list!  I
think the K1 is under rated and one of the best little rigs out there for
portability and utility! I love to use mine here in the shack also and thus
I would love to have a wire bale! I have a 4-band fully loaded with all
accessories but I must admit I have never used the battery option even
though it is installed.

Perhaps someone could invent a wire bale?  I'm sure it would be a best
seller!

It definitely does the job, but...it seems way over-engineered and
complicated for the task of simply lifting the front of a K1, which is all
that many require.  It doesn't colllapse quickly for storage, and it
provides only two orientations for the K1, assuming that you carry both sets
of support legs along.

All I really want is a simple *permanently* attached wire bale that can be
flipped down to prop up the front.  I don't need my K1 to look like it is
floating a couple of inches above the table.

The KTS1 and the KNB1 are two K1 accessories that have fallen out of use
here.
