[Elecraft] Non-skid Radios

[Don Ehrlich]

This won't be news to many but perhaps some of us did not know how useful 
the non-skid mats are that you can buy in any grocery store.  These mats are 
made of a rubbery substance that, when placed under something like a light 
weight radio or a bug or paddle, keep it from moving.  It is very handy 
stuff and very cheap as well.
