[Elecraft] The K line. Is it the wrong way round?

[Fred Jensen]

OK, I think you're all wrong. :-)  My KPA500 is on the desk to my right, 
the K3 is on the shelf above it, the P3 is to the left of the K3 pretty 
much directly in line with my vision to the right of the laptop [I find 
I never seem to look at the radio anymore, just watch the P3], and the 
KAT500 is on the shelf above the K3.

My Elmer taught me to send right-handed and manipulate the receiver and 
transmitter right because I'm left-handed and then I could write legibly 
in my log.  Now that I can put the Pigknob on the left, I'm finding it 
very comfortable.
