[Elecraft] Re: Hexkey waiting on bench, due to warning

[Tim Heasman]

Hi All,

I sit my Begali Magnet Pro on a Dell rubber backed mouse mat to reduce the 
slippage due to the rigid feet used.  It has lots of mass due to the thick 
steel base but can slip about on my desk top without the mat.

Regards

Tim
