The "Nifty Stand" is perfect for use with or without paddles. I'm a non-CW
op and would not want one any shorter than it is for sure The back of the
KX3 on the nifty stand is not quite 1 1/2" off my table the front almost 2"
and the angle is excellent for viewing.

Hi guys

Yesterday someone contacted me and pointed out that all the KX3 stands
around were designed to sit the KX3 quite high up to allow the Elecraft
paddle to be fitted. He suggested that not everyone uses the Elecraft
paddle, and of course not everyone uses CW (surely not??!!). For those folk
he suggested a lower stand would be be easier to use.

That sounded like a good idea so I have been working this morning on our new
"Low Rider" stand. It lays flat like its big brother but it sits the
KX3 lower down (about 1.25 inches from the desk).

Here it is...
